Summary
Chinese nursing postgraduates generally have positive perceptions of Generative Artificial Intelligence (GenAI) and its usage. However, barriers and concerns exist, highlighting the need for tailored GenAI education in China.
Area of Science:
- Nursing Education
- Health Informatics
- Artificial Intelligence in Healthcare
Background:
- Generative Artificial Intelligence (GenAI) offers potential to improve research efficiency and reduce clinical workload for nursing professionals.
- Understanding nursing postgraduates' perceptions of GenAI is crucial for its effective integration into healthcare and nursing sectors.
Purpose of the Study:
- To explore Chinese nursing postgraduates' perceptions, attitudes, and needs concerning Generative Artificial Intelligence tools.
- To identify barriers and concerns related to GenAI adoption in nursing postgraduate education and practice.
Main Methods:
- Qualitative study employing semi-structured interviews with 16 nursing postgraduates.
- Purposeful sampling targeted master's students with prior AI experience.
- Thematic analysis was utilized to identify key themes and patterns in the data.
Main Results:
- Five themes emerged: performance expectancy, effort expectancy, social influence, usage attitudes/behaviors, and adoption barriers.
- Nursing postgraduates exhibited generally positive perceptions and usage behaviors towards GenAI.
- Identified barriers and concerns associated with the application of GenAI in nursing.
Conclusions:
- GenAI is increasingly relevant in healthcare and nursing research and practice.
- Nursing postgraduates demonstrate a positive attitude towards GenAI, but require guidance for appropriate application.
- The study recommends context-specific educational strategies for GenAI, addressing current educational gaps in China.

Trends in nursing are multifactorial and associated with changes in society, within the nursing profession, and in other professions. Notably, telehealth and remote nursing contribute to successful healthcare delivery for numerous patients and help reduce stress for nurses due to nursing shortages. Nurses can reach patients, monitor their conditions, and interact with them using computers, audio, visual accessories, and telephones—for example, remote patient monitoring systems. Likewise,...

5.3K
An important concept in studying metabolism and energy is that of chemical equilibrium. Most chemical reactions are reversible. They can proceed in both directions, releasing energy into their environment in one direction, and absorbing it from the environment in the other direction. The same is true for the chemical reactions involved in cell metabolism, such as the breaking down and building up of proteins into and from individual amino acids, respectively. Reactants within a closed system...

Cognitive psychology is the field of psychology dedicated to examining how people think. It attempts to explain how and why we think the way we do by studying the interactions among human thinking, emotion, creativity, language, and problem-solving, as well as other cognitive processes. Cognitive psychology studies how information is processed and manipulated in remembering, thinking, and knowing.

Theories play an essential role in organizing patient care. Theories refer to a proposed or followed belief, policy, or procedure that is the basis for action. Nursing theories are knowledge-based concepts that guide nurses' actions, influence nursing education and practice, and allow nurses to care for their patients.
Theories provide a perspective to assess patients' conditions and organize data and methods. They also assist in analyzing and interpreting information. They represent a...

A revisionist approach to Jean Piaget's theory of cognitive development has brought new insights that challenge and reinterpret his established ideas. Piaget proposed that the formal operational stage, emerging in adolescence, represents the culmination of cognitive maturity. During this stage, individuals are said to develop abstract thinking, engage in systematic problem-solving, and show a form of egocentrism, believing others are as preoccupied with their behavior as they are...
