Brief Summary

This study aims to evaluate a career planning mobile App specifically tailored for male nurses.This three-year experimental project aims to recruit 120 male nurses (60）in the experimental group and 60 in the control group). Employing a prospective double-blind randomized controlled trial (RCT) design, the study will include six follow-up points (pre-intervention, post-intervention at 0, 6, 12, 18, and 24 months) to examine the effectiveness of career self-efficacy, career adaptive behaviors, occupational resilience, career success, and career continuity intentions of male nurses over time. The repeated measures data will be analyzed with the intention-to-treat analysis method and General Estimating Equations (GEE). This research represents an innovative development of the world's first theoretically grounded career planning mobile App for male nurses.The study's results can serve as a valuable reference for future career planning initiatives in nursing practice and education.
