About this study

Official title: Nursing Students' Attitudes Towards Artificial Intelligence and Exam Anxiety Levels After Using ChatGPT and Google Bard in Their Education

This study was planned to determine nursing students' attitudes towards artificial intelligence and test anxiety levels after using ChatGPT and Google Bard in their education. The study will be carried out in accordance with the research feature of quasi-experimental, pretest-posttest, with 3rd and 4th year nursing students studying at Sinop University Faculty of Health Sciences in the 2023-2024 fall academic year. The research groups are named as follows; Experimental Group: The group that will receive ChatGPT and Google Bard training, Control Group: The group that will not receive ChatGPT and Google Bard training, in other words, the 3rd year students of the nursing department will be referred to as the control group, and the 4th year students will be the experimental group. Educational content; ChatGPT and Google Bard training for senior students of the Faculty of Health Sciences who volunteered to participate in the study was provided by Dr. Lecturer It will be given by member Yasemin Özyer Güvener. After the training is completed, students will be asked to use generative artificial intelligence for educational purposes. During the posttest implementation of the study (one week before the final exams), data collection tools will be applied again to students who continue to volunteer to participate in the research.

Key words: nursing students, test anxiety, generative artificial intelligence, ChatGPT, Google Bard

Read the detailed description

In health sciences education, generative artificial intelligence programs, namely ChatGPT and Google Bard, can be used, for example, to create different and realistic clinical stories, to ensure that health sciences students receive instant help in unique clinical cases, and to improve students' communication skills (Sallam, 2023). Additionally, generative AI can assist health science students in self-learning and group work. The usefulness of productive artificial intelligence and the individualized interaction it provides have made it accepted as a source of motivation for students (Connor 2023; Kosak et al., 2023; Gilson et al., 2023; Khan et al., 2023).

Additionally, educators can promote deep learning by teaching students to critically evaluate information generated by generative AI, make informed decisions about the accuracy of information, and think about their responsibilities in the use of generative AI (Sun et al., 2023). For example, as homework, health sciences students may be asked to create an evidence-based protocol for stress management. Students can use generative AI to prepare the protocol. Thus, students can spend their time learning subject-related concepts or gaining knowledge about various topics.

In recent years, rapid developments in artificial intelligence technologies have affected all social systems, including economy, politics, science and education (Luan et al., 2020, Stephanidis et al., 2019). However, people are often unaware of the existence of artificial intelligence applications (Tai, 2020). Gansser and Reich (2021) define artificial intelligence as a technology developed simply to facilitate human life and assist people in certain scenarios. In fact, artificial intelligence is used in many useful contexts, such as diagnosing diseases, protecting environmental resources, predicting natural disasters, improving education, preventing violent acts, and reducing risks in the workplace (Brooks, 2019). Test anxiety is defined as the unpleasant feelings and emotional states experienced by the student during an exam or any evaluation. It is stated that test anxiety negatively affects the academic success of the student.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Experimental Group (Educational content; ChatGPT and Google Bard training)Behavioural

    Educational content; ChatGPT and Google Bard training for senior students of the Faculty of Health Sciences who volunteered to participate in the study was provided by Dr. Lecturer It will be given by member Yasemin Özyer Güvener. After the training is completed, students will be asked to use generative artificial intelligence for educational purposes.

    During the posttest implementation of the study (one week before the final exams), the Personal Information Form, "Attitude Scale Towards Artificial Intelligence" and "Westside Exam Anxiety Scale" will be re-administered to the 3rd and 4th year students of the Faculty of Health Sciences.

Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Control GroupNo interventionDuring the pretest of the study, firstly, the 3rd year students of the Faculty of Health Sciences will be informed about the purpose of the study, that their participation in the study is based on the principle of voluntariness, that they can leave the study at any time, and that the study results will be used only for scientific purposes. Then, data collection tools will be applied to students who volunteer to participate in the research. During the posttest implementation of the study (one week before the final exams), the Personal Information Form, "Attitude Scale Towards Artificial Intelligence" and "Westside Exam Anxiety Scale" will be re-administered to the 3rd and 4th year students of the Faculty of Health Sciences.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Attitude Scale Towards Artificial Intelligence

    This scale was developed by Schepman and Rodway (2020) to measure individuals' general attitudes towards artificial intelligence. The scale contains 20 items, 12 positive and 8 negative. Items are scored with a five-point Likert-type rating scale (from 1=strongly disagree to 5=strongly agree). The validity and reliability study of the attitude scale towards artificial intelligence in Turkish was conducted by Feridun et al. (2022).

    Measured: One Day

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Westside Test Anxiety Scale (WSKS)

    The scale was developed by Driscoll (2007) and adapted into Turkish for university students by Totan and Yavuz (2009). The scale was developed in its original form to be used to examine the effect of a program aimed at reducing test anxiety. While Driscoll (2007) shaped the scale as ten items in a single dimension, Totan and Yavuz (2009) translated the scale into Turkish as eleven items, thinking that defining one item as two different sign variables would be more suitable for Turkish grammar.

    Measured: One day

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 1 Apr 2024. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Turkey (Türkiye). Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Attitude Scale Towards Artificial Intelligence (time frame: One Day). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 1 Apr 2024.
