Turkish study uncovers AI confidence gaps among nursing students, exposing curriculum shortfalls, gendered tech access, and global digital inequities

Students from rural backgrounds, women, and those with limited prior exposure to coding report lower confidence, underscoring the necessity of targeted mentorship and resource allocation to amplify these marginalized perspectives.
The Turkish AI self‑efficacy study, while methodologically sound, sits within a historic pattern of rapid technocratic curriculum reforms that often sideline indigenous knowledge and marginalised student voices.
By foregrounding cross‑cultural comparisons, equitable access, and longitudinal tracking, stakeholders can transform confidence metrics into a catalyst for systemic change rather than a superficial badge of competence. Integrating community co‑design, targeted resource allocation, and global knowledge exchange will align AI education with ethical care practices, ensuring that future nurses wield technology responsibly and inclusively.
