Aims: The study aimed to determine the influence of learning circumstances (learning inside and outside hospitals, and communication about the nursing practice with colleagues) and on-the-job opportunities for professional growth on each dimension of person-environment fit (needs-supplies, demands-abilities, person-organisation and person-group fit) among nurses.

Background: It is desirable for each dimension of person-environment fit to be high, as it links to many work-related outcomes.

Methods: A longitudinal survey using a questionnaire was conducted in February 2019 (Time 1) and October 2019 (Time 2). A simple linear regression analysis and a multiple linear regression analysis were conducted, using data from 324 nurses.

Results: The results of the simple regression analysis showed that three variables related to learning circumstances at Time 1 were positively related to each dimension of person-environment fit at Time 2. The multiple regression analysis showed on-the-job opportunities for professional growth at Time 1 related to person-environment fit at Time 2.

Conclusions: To achieve high person-environment fit, nurses should be aware of on-the-job opportunities for professional growth.

Implications For Nursing Management: To achieve high person-environment fit, nurse managers should evaluate nurses' abilities and assign them jobs that would help improve their nursing skills.

Introduction: In recent years, "lying flat" has emerged as a significant term in contemporary discourse, referring to the phenomenon where modern young people choose passive resistance due to a lack of motivation when facing various situations. These trends have the potential to diminish the future learning enthusiasm and holistic development of vocational high school students, thus impacting their competitiveness in the future job market.

Methods: This study employs a motivational model for vocational high school students based on self-efficacy theory and person-environment fit theory to explore whether the competitive atmosphere moderates the impact of self-efficacy and competitive attitudes on task motivation.
