Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Mean change in total score on the Trust in Artificial Intelligence Technology Scale from baseline to post-test at twelve weeks. The scale consists of five items measured on a seven point Likert scale with higher scores indicating greater trust in artificial intelligence technology.Timepoint: Baseline and at twelve weeks

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Mean change in total score on the Trust in Artificial Intelligence Technology Scale from baseline to post-test at twelve weeks. The scale consists of five items measured on a seven point Likert scale with higher scores indicating greater trust in artificial intelligence technology. Timepoint: Baseline and at twelve weeks;Mean change in total score on the Computer Self-Efficacy Scale from baseline to post-test at twelve weeks. The scale consists of five items measured on a seven point Likert scale with higher scores indicating greater confidence in using computer based systems.Timepoint: Baseline and at twelve weeks;Mean frequency of artificial intelligence based triage system utilization by nurses in the experimental group during the independent utilization phase measured by system access logs. Utilization frequency includes number of logins per shift and number of triage assessments performed using the system.Timepoint: Throughout the twelve week post-implementation period
