abstract = {We deal with sign-changing solutions for the Kirchhoff equation         {                            −          (          a          +          b                      ∫                          Ω                                            |                    ∇          u                                    |                                      2                                d          x          )          Δ          u          =          λ          u          +          μ                      |                    u                                    |                                      2                                u          ,                              x          ∈          Ω          ,                                      u          =          0          ,                              x          ∈          ∂          Ω          ,                        where    a  ,  b  &gt;  0 and    λ  ,  μ  ∈      R   being parameters,    Ω  ⊂            R              3       is a bounded domain with smooth boundary    ∂  Ω. Combining Nehari manifold method with the quantitative deformation lemma, we prove that there exists        μ          ∗        &gt;  0 such that above problem has at least a least energy sign-changing (or nodal) solution if    λ  &lt;  a      λ          1       and    μ  &gt;      μ          ∗      , where        λ          1        &gt;  0 is the first eigenvalue of    (  −  Δ  u  ,      H          0              1        (  Ω  )  ). It is noticed that the nonlinearity    λ  u  +  μ      |    u            |              2        u fails to satisfy super-linear near zero and super-three-linear near infinity, respectively.}
