The Impact of Artificial Intelligence Attitudes and Acceptance on Critical Thinking Motivation among Nursing Students in Saudi Arabia
Acceptance and perceived usability of AI tools are positively associated with critical thinking motivation in nursing students. These findings underscore the potential of AI to support cognitive skill development in nursing education. Educators should integrate AI early in nursing curricula, provide structured training, and frame AI as a support tool in clinical decision-making. Doing so can foster both critical thinking and digital competence among future nurses.
