abstract={Objective: To explore the current status of depression among nursing senior students under public health emergencies and to analyze its relationship with self-efficacy and hope. Methods: A cross-sectional study of 210 nursing vocational college students from a vocational college in Sichuan Province were selected by convenience sampling method in January 2023, and investigated with General demographic information, Self-rating depression scale, General self-efficacy scale, and hope scale. Results: The scores of depression, general self-efficacy and hope were (41.96 ¡À 10.05), (23.84 ¡À 5.92) and (21.18 ¡À 4.46), respectively; Correlation analysis showed that depression was negatively correlated with self-efficacy (<i>r</i>=-0.617, <i>P</i>&lt;0.01), and depression was negatively correlated with hope (<i>r</i>=-0.612, <i>P</i>&lt;0.01). The results of the multiple linear regression analysis showed that the three variables of self-efficacy, willingness motivation dimension, and path dimension entered the regression equation and together explained 43.70% of the total variance. Conclusion: Nursing vocational college students have mild depression under public emergencies, and their psychological problems should be paid attention to. Therefore, higher vocational colleges should take targeted measures to enhance their self-efficacy and hope, so as to reduce their depression.},
