Cross-cultural adaptation and psychometric evaluation of the artificial intelligence learning intention scale (AILIS) among medical sciences students: a methodological study.

What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
backgroundThis study aimed to adapt and psychometrically evaluate the Artificial Intelligence Learning Intention Scale (AILIS) among Iranian medical sciences students.
methodsThis methodological psychometric study was conducted among 800 medical sciences students at Babol University of Medical Sciences, Iran. The AILIS was translated and culturally adapted into Persian using a standardized cross-cultural adaptation process. Construct validity was examined through exploratory factor analysis (EFA) and confirmatory factor analysis (CFA). Reliability was assessed using Cronbach's alpha, McDonald's omega, and the intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC). Convergent and discriminant validity were evaluated using composite reliability (CR) and average variance extracted (AVE). Measurement invariance across gender and structural stability were assessed using multi-group confirmatory factor analysis and exploratory graph analysis (EGA).
resultsEFA supported a four-factor structure consisting of Epistemic Capacity, Psychological Attitudes, Facilitating Environments, and Psychological and Behavioral Outcomes, explaining 44.55% of the total variance, with factor loadings greater than 0.40. Confirmatory factor analysis indicated an acceptable model fit, supporting the proposed factor structure (χ²/df = 3.42, RMSEA = 0.078, CFI = 0.932). Internal consistency and test-retest reliability were satisfactory, with Cronbach's alpha ranging from 0.854 to 0.904, McDonald's omega from 0.854 to 0.899, and ICC from 0.750 to 0.860. Composite reliability values were adequate, while AVE values indicated acceptable but partially limited evidence of convergent validity. Discriminant validity was generally supported. In addition, multi-group analysis demonstrated measurement invariance across gender, and exploratory graph analysis confirmed the structural stability of the four-factor model.
conclusionThe Persian AILIS is a valid and reliable instrument for assessing AI learning intention among medical sciences students. Beyond its psychometric robustness, the instrument may support curriculum planning, evaluation of AI-related educational interventions, and evidence-based decision-making in medical sciences education by providing a standardized measure of students' intentions to engage with AI learning.
