The direct impact of time management disposition on innovative behavior was significant, and academic self-efficacy and flow experience exhibited both independent mediating effects and a chain mediating effect.The time management disposition of undergraduate nursing students can significantly positively predict innovative behavior, in which academic self-efficacy and flow experience play a significant independent intermediary role and chain intermediary role. Nursing teachers and students can promote innovative behavior from the point of view of improving time management skills, enhancing academic self-efficacy and flow experience.
