About this study
Official title: Knowledge, Attitudes, And Perceptions of a Group of Egyptian Dental Students Towards Artificial Intelligence: A Cross-sectional Study
In the context of this ongoing AI revolution, it is essential to ensure that current and future clinical practitioners are up to date regarding this technology's current state and potential. It is valuable to assess the current attitude of clinical dentists and undergraduate students in dentistry regarding the future role of AI.
To the best of the author's knowledge, there is no study about Egyptian dental students' views and attitudes regarding the application of AI in dental practice. Therefore, this study aimed to evaluate the attitudes and perceptions of a group of dental students in Egypt towards AI.
Read the detailed description
Data will be collected using a questionnaire. The survey will be distributed to dental students at the Faculty of Dentistry, Cairo, and Egyptian Russian universities through Google Forms. The questionnaire comprised 3 sections and 22 questions. The survey consisted of a question on demographics and educational information about dental students, knowledge of and attitudes towards AI, future application areas of AI in dentistry, and topics of AI in dental education. The first part of the survey. Informed consent will be obtained from all the participants before completing the questionnaire.
