The impact of innovativeness on Chinese nurses' attitudes toward artificial intelligence: a cross-sectional study based on the technology acceptance model.

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
backgroundArtificial Intelligence (AI) in nursing practice holds transformative potential for healthcare. For these advancements to be successfully incorporated into nursing, nurses need to develop positive attitudes toward adopting AI technologies. This study aims to profile Chinese nurses’ attitudes toward AI and explore the factors. And introduce NI as a critical antecedent, constructing and validating a chain mediation model involving PEOU and PU, thereby advancing the TAM framework.
methodsWe conducted a cross-sectional study with 765 nurses from four Chinese hospitals. Data analysis included non-parametric tests, Spearman’s correlation, multiple linear regression, and chain mediation testing (using SPSS PROCESS Model 6).
results‘The study found that nurses’ attitudes toward AI adoption were significantly influenced by their job hierarchy, knowledge of AI, and perceptions of AI’s importance, usefulness (PU), and ease of use (PEOU), along with frequency of AI usage and nurses’ innovativeness (NI) (p<0.05). PU and PEOU of AI mediated the link between NI and their attitudes toward the use of AI(ATUA).
conclusionNurses generally held positive attitudes toward AI. The study confirmed a chain-mediation pathway: NI→ PEOU→ PU→ ATUA. These findings extend the application of Technology Acceptance Model in nursing and strengthen its predictive power in this context. This study provided a theoretical foundation for fairly promoting and implementing AI in nursing practice.
