Applying the technology acceptance model to examine factors influencing chatbot use in HPV prevention education among nursing students.
Article in BMC nursing, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
backgroundHuman papillomavirus (HPV) is one of the most common sexually transmitted infections worldwide. However, its coverage in nursing curricula is often limited. Chatbots offer a novel approach to enhance digital health education, yet their acceptance among nursing students remains underexplored.
objectiveThis study examined nursing students' acceptance and use of an HPV prevention chatbot, based on the Technology Acceptance Model (TAM).
methodsA cross-sectional study was conducted with 210 nursing students in central Taiwan. Participants engaged with a LINE-based chatbot that included thematic modules, an HPV knowledge assessment, and an expert Q&A. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, t-tests, ANOVA, Pearson correlation, and linear regression. Open-ended feedback was also analyzed.
resultsPerceived ease of use significantly predicted perceived usefulness (β = 0.859, p < 0.001). Both predicted attitude (R² = 82.2%), which, along with usefulness, predicted behavioral intention (R² = 90.8%). Behavioral intention strongly predicted actual use (β = 0.933, p < 0.001, R² = 87.1%). Age, prior chatbot experience, and number of sexual partners significantly influenced perceived usefulness and perceived ease of use.
conclusionThe chatbot was well accepted and effectively improved HPV-related knowledge. Results support integrating chatbot technology into nursing education to enhance engagement and learning in sexual health topics.
