Mohammadhiwa Abdekhoda; Afsaneh Dehnad
Interactive Technology and Smart Education, v21 n4 p535-545 2024
Purpose: Artificial intelligence (AI) is a growing paradigm and has made considerable changes in many fields of study, including medical education. However, more investigations are needed to successfully adopt AI in medical education. The purpose of this study was identify the determinant factors in adopting AI-driven technology in medical education. Design/methodology/approach: This was a descriptive-analytical study in which 163 faculty members from Tabriz University of Medical Sciences were randomly selected by nonprobability sampling technique method. The faculty members' intention concerning the adoption of AI was assessed by the conceptual path model of task-technology fit (TTF). Findings: According to the findings, "technology characteristics," "task characteristics" and "TTF" showed direct and significant effects on AI adoption in medical education. Moreover, the results showed that the TTF was an appropriate model to explain faculty members' intentions for adopting AI. The valid proposed model explained 37% of the variance in faulty members' intentions to adopt AI. Practical implications: By presenting a conceptual model, the authors were able to examine faculty members' intentions and identify the key determining factors in adopting AI in education. The model can help the authorities and policymakers facilitate the adoption of AI in medical education. The findings contribute to the design and implementation of AI-driven technology in education. Originality/value: The finding of this study should be considered when successful implementation of AI in education is in progress.
