Detaljerad beskrivning
This was a two-group, parallel, pre-test-post-test randomized controlled trial evaluating the effect of a chatbot-supported clinical training on nursing students' self-efficacy in pediatric medication administration. The trial was reported in accordance with the CONSORT statement.
All eligible third-year nursing students entering the pediatric clinical placement were invited (complete enumeration), and 106 students who consented were enrolled. Participants were allocated to an experimental group (n=53) and a control group (n=53) using fixed block randomization (block size = 6).
Both groups received the routine curriculum. The experimental group additionally used a web-based chatbot before and during the placement. The chatbot contained two modules: a dose calculator (computing required drug amount and volume from the child's weight, prescribed dose, and drug concentration) and a question-answer assistant. The chatbot's content was drawn solely from a validated pediatric nursing reference textbook rather than free AI-generated responses. The control group accessed standard clinical references only. After the study, the control group was also offered access to the chatbot.
Data were analyzed using independent- and paired-samples t-tests and analysis of covariance (ANCOVA) with the pre-test score as a covariate.

Intervention / Behandling |
|---|---|
|
Experimentell: Experimental group
Participants received the routine curriculum and additionally used a web-based chatbot (a dose calculator and a book-based question-answer assistant) before and during the pediatric clinical placement.
|
A web-based chatbot accessible via mobile and desktop browsers, containing two modules: an advanced dose calculator that computes required drug amount and volume from the child's weight, prescribed dose, and drug concentration; and a question-answer assistant that responds to pediatric medication questions using content drawn solely from a validated pediatric nursing reference textbook.

Inget ingripande: Control group
Participants received the routine curriculum and accessed standard clinical references only, without the chatbot.

Self-efficacy in pediatric medication administration
Tidsram: Baseline (before the pediatric clinical placement) and post-intervention (after completion of the placement, approximately at the end of the clinical rotation). Baseline (Day 1) and post-intervention (Week 8)
|
Self-efficacy measured with the Medication Administration Self-Efficacy Scale in Children for Nursing Students (MASSCNS), a 16-item, 5-point Likert scale with total scores ranging from 16 to 80. Higher scores indicate greater self-efficacy.
Change from pre-test to post-test was compared between groups.
