Artificial Intelligence Attitude Assessment Tools in Nursing: A Scoping Review

The purpose of this study is to summarize and analyze evaluation tools for assessing attitudes toward artificial intelligence (AI) applications in nursing, thereby providing references for screening or developing suitable assessment tools for attitudes toward AI applications in China’s nursing field. Using the Arksey Systematic Review Framework, we searched domestic and international databases for literature on evaluation tools for attitudes toward AI applications in nursing, with the search period ranging from the establishment of each database to March 8, 2026. We extracted the basic characteristics of the included literature and evaluation tools, which were then subjected to systematic analysis. The results show that there are various types of tools for assessing attitudes toward AI applications in the nursing field. It is recommended to use multi-dimensional assessment tools to evaluate nurses’ attitudes toward AI applications. In the future, it is necessary to further verify and improve existing assessment tools, as well as develop or create localized, specific assessment tools for attitudes toward AI applications in China’s nursing field.
