Effect of AI-Supported Case Analysis on Nursing Students

May 22, 2026 updated by: AYSER DÖNER, Nevsehir Haci Bektas Veli University

The Effect of AI-Supported Case Analysis on Nursing Students' Knowledge, Learning Satisfaction Levels, and Clinical Decision-Making Skills

The aim of this study is to determine the effect of AI-supported oncology case analysis on nursing students' knowledge, level of learning satisfaction, and clinical decision-making skills. This study is planned to be conducted using a single-blind randomized controlled trial design for the quantitative research component and an interview design for the qualitative research component. The students will be divided into two groups: an intervention group (artificial intelligence) and a control group (traditional instruction).

Study Overview

Detailed Description

The use of artificial intelligence in education offers numerous benefits to both students and educators. The aim of this study is to determine the effect of AI-supported oncology case analysis on nursing students' knowledge, level of learning satisfaction, and clinical decision-making skills. This study is planned to be conducted using a single-blind randomized controlled trial design for the quantitative research component and an interview design for the qualitative research component. The study population will consist of 42 second-year nursing students enrolled in the Oncology Nursing elective course at the Faculty of Health Sciences during the 2025-2026 academic year. The students will be divided into two groups: an intervention group (artificial intelligence) and a control group (traditional instruction). In the study, data will be collected using the Student Information Form, Knowledge Test, Learning Satisfaction Scale, Clinical Decision-Making Scale in Nursing, and Semi-Structured Interview Form.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Knowledge level
Time Frame: 2 hours

The knowledge test consists of 10 multiple-choice questions with five options each. Each question is worth 10 points, and the total test score will be calculated out of 100 points.

12 Level of knowledge

2 hours
Learning satisfaction
Time Frame: 2 hours
The Mentimeter application will be used to determine students' level of learning satisfaction. Students' learning satisfaction levels regarding the case analysis will be assessed on a 10-point scale, ranging from 0 (Strongly Disagree) to 10 (Strongly Agree).
2 hours
Clinical decision-making skills
Time Frame: 2 hours
The Turkish validity and reliability study of the scale developed by Jenkins to measure nursing students' self-reported perceptions of clinical decision-making was conducted by Durmaz-Edeer and Sarıkaya (2015). The scale consists of four sub-dimensions and a total of 40 items: exploring options and ideas, investigating goals and values, evaluating outcomes, researching information, and adopting new information impartially. The scale is a five-point Likert type, with a total score between 40 and 200, and scores between 10 and 50 for each sub-dimension. A high score indicates a high perception of clinical decision-making among students, while a low score indicates a low perception of decision-making.
