Abstrakt: Purpose: This study was conducted to investigate the effect of training provided to pediatric nurses on their knowledge and attitude levels about artificial intelligence and robot nurses.
Design and Methods: In this study, a single-group pre- and post-test quasi-experimental design was used. Data were collected from pediatric nurses working in Training and Research Hospital located in western Turkey. Forty-three pediatric nurses participated in the study. The study data were collected using the "Pediatric Nurses' Descriptive Characteristics Form", "Artificial Intelligence Knowledge Form", and "Artificial Intelligence General Attitude Scale".
Results: The mean scores of the participating pediatric nurses obtained from the Artificial Intelligence Knowledge Form before, right after and one month after the training were 41.16 ± 14.95, 68.25 ± 13.57 and 69.06 ± 13.19, respectively. The mean scores they obtained from the Positive Attitudes towards Artificial Intelligence subscale of the Artificial Intelligence General Attitude Scale before and after the training were 3.43 ± 0.54 and 3.59 ± 0.60, respectively whereas the mean scores they obtained from its Negative Attitudes towards Artificial Intelligence subscale were 2.68 ± 0.67 and 2.77 ± 0.75, respectively.
Conclusions: It was determined that the training given to the pediatric nurses about artificial intelligence and robot nurses increased the nurses' knowledge levels and their artificial intelligence attitude scores, but this increase in the artificial intelligence attitude scores was not significant.
Practice Implications: The use of artificial intelligence and robotics or advanced technology in pediatric nursing care can be fostered.
