About this trial
The goal of this clinical trial is to find out whether an artificial intelligence (AI)-powered research training course can improve nursing students' research skills, attitudes toward artificial intelligence, and readiness to use AI in research and education.
The main questions this study aims to answer are:
Does AI-powered research training improve nursing students' understanding of research methods?
Does this training improve nursing students' attitudes toward artificial intelligence?
Does the course increase nursing students' readiness and confidence to use artificial intelligence in research-related activities?
Researchers will compare nursing students who take an AI-powered research training course with students who receive usual education without AI-based training.
Participants will:
Be randomly assigned to either the AI-powered research training group or the usual education group
Complete online questionnaires about research skills, attitudes toward artificial intelligence, and readiness to use AI
Attend assessments at three time points: before the course, immediately after the course, and three months later
The AI-powered research training course includes structured sessions on research methods and the responsible use of artificial intelligence tools for literature review, research design, data analysis support, and academic writing. The results of this study may help improve research education and support the safe and effective use of artificial intelligence in nursing education and research.
