INTRODUCTION<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span lang=\"EN-GB\">In recent years, artificial intelligence (AI) has become increasingly prominent across various sectors, particularly in education and healthcare. Among generative AI tools, ChatGPT has attracted considerable attention due to its capacity to generate human-like text in response to user prompts. Its ability to process and produce natural language has positioned it as a potentially valuable educational support tool (Adeshola &amp; Adepoju, 2024).<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span lang=\"EN-GB\">In healthcare education, ChatGPT has been reported to support teaching and learning activities in several ways. It may assist with academic writing and enhance research-related skills, including literature searching and preliminary data analysis (Sallam, 2023). Evidence suggests that ChatGPT can improve learning efficiency, foster self-directed learning, provide personalised educational support, and reduce barriers to accessing information (Baig &amp; Yadegaridehkordi, 2024). Its use may also facilitate tailored learning experiences while encouraging critical thinking and problem-based learning (Sallam, 2023). Furthermore, ChatGPT has been explored as a tool for language development, knowledge revision, and clinical simulation, thereby contributing to competency development among healthcare students (Scherr et al., 2023).<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span lang=\"EN-GB\">Previous research indicates that a substantial proportion of students (66.7%) are aware of and use ChatGPT for academic purposes, often informally as a search tool, although many (over half) do not fully understand its underlying mechanisms (Maa\u00df et al., 2025). Students tend to use ChatGPT independently but frequently report limited confidence in prompt construction and uncertainty regarding legal and ethical considerations (Maa\u00df et al., 2025). Similarly, a study in Saudi Arabia found that 91.2% of healthcare students were familiar with ChatGPT and 75.1% felt comfortable using it for academic purposes (Alharbi et al., 2024). Although students generally demonstrate positive attitudes toward ChatGPT, gaps in confidence and understanding suggest a need for more structured and targeted training, particularly in relation to future professional roles. Students have expressed interest in learning about AI within their programmes (62.5%), general AI knowledge (58.0%), and AI applications in academic writing (57.0%). Differences in usage have also been observed according to gender and self-rated academic performance (Maa\u00df et al., 2025). Notably, 66.7% of students reported positive attitudes toward ChatGPT, and 84.7% believed it had a positive impact on their education (Alharbi et al., 2024). Greater knowledge of ChatGPT and more favourable attitudes toward technology have been associated with variations in usage, whereas demographic variables, including gender, have shown inconsistent or limited associations (<\/span><span lang=\"EN-GB\">Abdaljaleel<\/span><span lang=\"EN-GB\"> et al., 2024; Abdelhafiz et al., 2025; Cherrez-Ojeda et al., 2024; Yakubu et al., 2024).<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span lang=\"EN-GB\">Despite this growing body of evidence, most existing studies have focused on undergraduate populations and have primarily reported prevalence rates and associated factors (Qazi et al., 2025; Zhang et al., 2024) . Less attention has been directed towards postgraduate students, particularly within healthcare disciplines where students frequently balance academic study with ongoing professional or clinical responsibilities. This dual role may influence how generative AI tools, such as ChatGPT, are adopted and integrated into authentic academic and professional tasks, extending beyond purely classroom-based applications.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span lang=\"EN-GB\">Within Vietnamese postgraduate education, ChatGPT has been reported to support academic writing, particularly in addressing grammatical issues and providing lexical resources (Duong et al., 2024; Nguyen et al., 2025). However, the Vietnamese context has not been extensively examined in relation to ChatGPT adoption in healthcare education. Higher education in Vietnam is undergoing rapid digital transformation, while institutional policies and formal guidance concerning generative AI remain in development (Miao &amp; Holmes, 2024). Variations in infrastructure, access to AI-related training, and reliance on predominantly English-language resources may further shape patterns of use (Nhung et al., 2025; Quy et al., 2023). These contextual factors make Vietnam a relevant setting for examining how ChatGPT is adopted within postgraduate healthcare education.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span lang=\"EN-GB\">A review of the literature revealed no studies specifically investigating ChatGPT use among postgraduate healthcare students in Vietnam. Examining this usage behaviour is therefore important for developing a more comprehensive understanding of AI integration in medical education, particularly within a context where learners navigate both professional and academic demands. Accordingly, this study aims to (1) describe ChatGPT utilisation for academic purposes among postgraduate healthcare students and (2) examine factors associated with its utilisation. By focusing on postgraduate healthcare students in Vietnam, this study extends existing survey-based research and offers context-sensitive insight into generative AI adoption in professional education.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p align=\"center\" style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong><span lang=\"EN-GB\">II. METHODS<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><i><span lang=\"EN-GB\">A.<\/span><\/i><i><span lang=\"EN-GB\"> <\/span><\/i><i><span lang=\"EN-GB\">Study Design and Participants<\/span><\/i><\/p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span lang=\"EN-GB\">A cross-sectional study was conducted between August 2024 and August 2025 with the actual data collection for the main study taking place in late December 2024, following official ethical clearance at a public healthcare university in Central Vietnam, in accordance with the STROBE (Strengthening the Reporting of Observational Studies in Epidemiology) statement (<\/span><span lang=\"EN-GB\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.strobe-statement.org\/\" target=\"_new\">https:\/\/www.strobe-statement.org\/<\/a><\/span><span lang=\"EN-GB\">). The institution offers both undergraduate and postgraduate programmes. At the time of the study, its three two-year specialised postgraduate programmes in nursing, medical laboratory technology, and internal medicine enrolled approximately 450 students.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span lang=\"EN-GB\">Participants were postgraduate students from this university who provided voluntary informed consent. The required sample size was calculated using G*Power version 3.1.9.4 (<\/span><span lang=\"EN-GB\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.gpower.hhu.de\/\" target=\"_new\">http:\/\/www.gpower.hhu.de\/<\/a><\/span><span lang=\"EN-GB\">) for a one-sided correlation test (effect size = 0.2, \u03b1 = 0.05, power = 0.80), yielding a minimum sample of 153 participants. To enhance generalisability, the target sample size was increased to 306. Participants were recruited using convenience sampling based on the predefined inclusion criteria. During data collection, five respondents submitted incomplete questionnaires and were excluded from the final analysis to ensure data quality.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><i><span lang=\"EN-GB\">B. Data Collection<\/span><\/i><\/p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span lang=\"EN-GB\">Data were collected using a self-report questionnaire comprising four sections. The first section gathered participants\u2019 demographic information, including age, gender, current working position, and years of work experience.<\/span><i><span lang=\"EN-GB\"><\/span><\/i><\/p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span lang=\"EN-GB\">The second section employed the ChatGPT Knowledge Scale developed by K\u00f6hler and Hartig (2024). This six-item scale includes three response options: \u201cCorrect\u201d, \u201cIncorrect\u201d, and \u201cUnknown\u201d. Correct responses were awarded 1 point, whereas incorrect and unknown responses received 0 points. For items 1, 2, 4, and 6, reverse scoring was applied: incorrect responses were assigned 1 point, while the remaining responses received 0 points. The total score ranged from 0 to 6, with higher scores indicating greater knowledge of ChatGPT (K\u00f6hler &amp; Hartig, 2024).<\/span><i><span lang=\"EN-GB\"><\/span><\/i><\/p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span lang=\"EN-GB\">The third section assessed participants\u2019 attitudes toward ChatGPT using the Attitude Scale developed by Sallam et al. (2023). This instrument comprises 13 items across three dimensions: perceived risk (5 items), anxiety (3 items), and attitudes toward technology and social influence (5 items). Each item was rated on a 5-point Likert scale ranging from 1 (strongly disagree) to 5 (strongly agree). Eight negatively worded items within the perceived risk and anxiety dimensions were reverse-scored. Dimension scores and the overall scale score were calculated as the mean of the item scores, ranging from 1 to 5, with higher scores indicating more positive attitudes (Sallam et al., 2023).<\/span><i><span lang=\"EN-GB\"><\/span><\/i><\/p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span lang=\"EN-GB\">The final section assessed participants\u2019 academic use of ChatGPT using a 10-item scale developed by K\u00f6hler and Hartig (2024). Each item provided four response options: \u201cNo, I don\u2019t intend to either\u201d, \u201cNo, but I can imagine it\u201d, \u201cYes, but was not helpful\u201d, and \u201cYes, was helpful\u201d. The original scale measured two dimensions: actual usage (whether a specific interaction with ChatGPT occurred) and use value (the perceived usefulness of that interaction). In the present study, only the actual usage dimension was analysed.\u00a0 As the primary objective of this study was to examine patterns and predictors of ChatGPT use in academic contexts, focusing exclusively on the actual usage dimension ensured conceptual alignment with the behavioural emphasis of the research. Accordingly, the responses \u201cYes, but was not helpful\u201d and \u201cYes, was helpful\u201d were categorised as \u201cyes\u201d and coded as 1, whereas the remaining responses were categorised as \u201cno\u201d and coded as 0. The total score ranged from 0 to 10, with higher scores indicating more frequent academic use of ChatGPT (K\u00f6hler &amp; Hartig, 2024).<i><\/i><\/span><\/p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span lang=\"EN-GB\">The second, third, and final sections were translated into Vietnamese in accordance with the procedure described by Cruchinho et al. (2024). Subsequently, a panel of five experts, each holding a master\u2019s or doctoral degree in a health-related field and teaching at healthcare universities, evaluated the content validity of the Vietnamese versions. The content validity index (CVI) and internal consistency coefficients derived from both the pilot study (n = 30) and the main study (n = 301) are presented in Table 1.<\/span><span

DISCUSSION<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><i><span lang=\"EN-GB\"><\/span><\/i><span lang=\"EN-GB\"><i>A. Academic Use of ChatGPT Among Participants<\/i><\/span><\/p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span lang=\"EN-GB\">The academic use of ChatGPT has been widely documented; however, its application among postgraduate healthcare students remains underexplored. In this study, the moderate mean and median usage scores suggest overall modest engagement. At the same time, the marked floor (33.9%) and ceiling (20.6%) effects indicate a polarised distribution, with a considerable proportion of students either not using ChatGPT or using it extensively. Such divergence may reflect differences in confidence, perceived legitimacy, or access to institutional guidance. Clustering at the extremes may also limit the scale\u2019s sensitivity to detect more nuanced variation in usage behaviour.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span lang=\"EN-GB\">The moderate level of academic use observed in this cohort may reflect contextual constraints rather than limited interest. Postgraduate healthcare students in Vietnam commonly balance academic study with ongoing professional and clinical responsibilities, which may encourage selective and task-oriented engagement. In this context, ChatGPT use may be shaped by pragmatic considerations, including time pressures, professional accountability, and caution regarding ethical boundaries in academic and clinical settings. Furthermore, where institutional guidance on ChatGPT remains emergent, students may adopt a measured approach rather than pursuing widespread or experimental integration.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span lang=\"EN-GB\">Participants most frequently reported using ChatGPT to clarify unclear content, consistent with prior research highlighting its role in concept clarification and complex problem-solving support (Monib et al., 2025). In postgraduate healthcare education, where learners often balance academic, clinical, and professional responsibilities, such task-oriented use may reflect pragmatic rather than exploratory engagement. ChatGPT appears to function primarily as a cognitive scaffold, supporting comprehension and structuring of ideas in self-directed learning contexts.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span lang=\"EN-GB\">More than half of participants reported using ChatGPT to generate writing outlines, and many used it to gain overviews of new topics, generate content ideas, summarise academic readings, and obtain feedback on drafts. These patterns align with prior findings that postgraduate students predominantly use ChatGPT for writing, revising, editing, and summarising tasks (Acosta et al., 2024; Belaldavar &amp; Angadi, 2024). Similarly, Chauke et al. (2024) reported its use in refining research focus, rephrasing content, and reducing time spent searching for literature. Collectively, these findings suggest that ChatGPT is integrated into early-stage knowledge exploration and drafting processes, supporting efficiency and academic productivity.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span lang=\"EN-GB\">In contrast, more personalised or practical applications were reported less frequently. Although over one-third of participants used ChatGPT for advice related to time management or emotional concerns, entertainment-related use appeared limited. This differs from findings among undergraduates, where entertainment significantly influenced usage (Lee et al., 2025). A speculative but plausible interpretation is that postgraduate students, who often manage study, work, and family responsibilities simultaneously, may prioritise efficiency over recreational experimentation. However, as such contextual factors were not directly measured, these interpretations remain tentative and warrant further investigation.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span lang=\"EN-GB\">Fewer than one-third of participants reported using ChatGPT to draft pre-written emails. Although ChatGPT has been recognised as useful for improving academic communication, including writing style and clarity (Liu et al., 2024), its adoption for administrative or professional correspondence appears comparatively cautious in this cohort. This hesitation may stem from uncertainty regarding the appropriateness of AI-assisted communication in academic or clinical settings, particularly in the absence of clear institutional guidance. The relatively modest scores on perceived risk and anxiety dimensions suggest ambivalence rather than overt resistance. Notably, the positive association between ChatGPT use and the technology\/social influence dimension indicates that institutional endorsement or peer normalisation may facilitate broader acceptance of AI-supported communication.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span lang=\"EN-GB\">Overall, these findings indicate that postgraduate healthcare students primarily use ChatGPT to support learning and writing processes. The comparatively lower engagement in emotional support or administrative communication may reflect professional norms, ethical caution, and evolving institutional policies. These patterns highlight the need for structured AI literacy initiatives and clearer guidance on responsible and context-appropriate use within postgraduate programmes.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><i><span lang=\"EN-GB\">B. Factors Associated with the <\/span><\/i><i><span lang=\"EN-GB\">Academic Use of ChatGPT Among Participants<\/span><\/i><\/p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span lang=\"EN-GB\">Knowledge of ChatGPT was moderately associated with academic use (r = 0.373, p &lt; 0.001), consistent with prior research identifying awareness as a key factor associated with adoption among postgraduate students (Yakubu et al., 2024). However, the relatively low internal consistency of the knowledge scale (KR-20 = 0.53) suggests potential measurement limitations;<\/span><span lang=\"EN-GB\"> <\/span><span lang=\"EN-GB\">hence, the role of knowledge as an associated factor should be interpreted with caution. The instrument primarily assesses factual recognition and may not adequately capture procedural skills, such as prompt design or deeper conceptual understanding of how ChatGPT functions. As ChatGPT-related knowledge is likely multidimensional, this limited scope may have introduced measurement error and attenuated the observed association. Future research should therefore consider multidimensional assessments of ChatGPT literacy to enhance reliability and conceptual precision.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span lang=\"EN-GB\">Attitudes toward technology and social influence were positively associated with ChatGPT use (r = 0.282, p &lt; 0.001), consistent with prior research linking perceived ease of use and normative influences to utilisation among postgraduate students (Abdaljaleel et al., 2024; Yakubu et al., 2024). Notably, overall attitude was not significantly associated with usage. This pattern suggests that behavioural engagement may be shaped more strongly by contextual and normative factors than by general affective disposition. In institutional settings where formal guidance on ChatGPT remains emergent, peer endorsement and prevailing academic norms may exert a particularly influential role in shaping adoption.<\/span><span lang=\"EN-GB\"> <\/span><span lang=\"EN-GB\">The influence of social norms may be further amplified by cultural and institutional characteristics. In hierarchical academic environments, supervisory attitudes and peer expectations may carry substantial weight in behavioural decision-making. Where formal policy frameworks are still developing, informal signals of approval from lecturers or senior peers may function as indicators of legitimacy, thereby facilitating engagement. This may help explain why the technology and social influence dimension was associated with ChatGPT use, whereas general attitude was not.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span lang=\"EN-GB\">In addition, no significant differences in usage were observed across gender, age, work experience, or working position. These findings are consistent with prior research reporting no significant association between gender and ChatGPT usage (Bouzar et al., 2024), and reflect broader patterns in technology adoption where demographic differences are diminishing. Within this postgraduate cohort, engagement appears to be influenced more by knowledge and contextual factors than by personal characteristics.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span lang=\"EN-GB\">These findings extend beyond descriptive prevalence by illustrating how ChatGPT engagement among postgraduate healthcare students may be selective, instrumental, and socially mediated. Rather than reflecting universal or novelty-driven adoption, ChatGPT use appears shaped by professional academic demands, institutional norms, and levels of familiarity with the tool. In contrast to undergraduates, postgraduate students typically undertake more autonomous, research-intensive, and writing-focused tasks, which may position ChatGPT not merely as a supplementary resource but as a cognitive scaffold supporting higher-order academic functions such as conceptual clarification and structural organisation of scholarly work. In this sense, ChatGPT use among postgraduate students may reflect developmental academic needs and professional pragmatism rather than simple technological experimentation. The observed polarisation in usage further underscores uneven integration within the cohort, raising the possibility of widening disparities in digital competence and academic strategy. Accordingly, responsible integration of ChatGPT in postgraduate education may require structured and transparent literacy initiatives that enhance practical knowledge, foster critical evaluation skills, and cultivate supportive institutional environments to ensure equitable and reflective adoption across programmes.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><i><span lang=\"EN-GB\">C. Limitation of the Study<\/span><\/i><\/p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span lang=\"EN-GB\">This study has some limitations that should be considered when interpreting the findings. First, the reliance on self-reported data may have introduced response biases, including social desirability and recall bias, potentially leading to over- or underestimation of actual ChatGPT use. Second, the use of an online Google Form may have resulted in digital literacy bias, as students more comfortable with technology could have been more likely to participate or complete the survey. Third, the use of convenience sampling within a single public healthcare university limits representativeness and restricts the generalisability of the findings to other institutional or academic contexts. Fourth, the predominantly female sample may not reflect gender distributions in postgraduate populations elsewhere, which may further limit external applicability. Finally, although the quantitative design enabled the identification of statistical associations, it did not capture the underlying motivations or contextual influences shaping ChatGPT use. Future research incorporating qualitative approaches may provide deeper insight into students\u2019 experiences and decision-making processes. Collapsing the ChatGPT usage scale into a binary system limited the interpretive depth. While it isolated actual behavioral occurrence, it removed meaningful distinctions regarding non-users\u2019 future intentions and users\u2019 perceived helpfulness, potentially weakening the construct validity.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong><span lang=\"EN-GB\">V. CONCLUSION<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span lang=\"EN-GB\">This study highlights that postgraduate healthcare students engage with ChatGPT in diverse academic ways, particularly for clarifying complex contents, supporting academic writing, and enhancing research efficiency. Although personal and administrative uses were less frequent, their presence suggests that ChatGPT may be gradually extending into broader aspects of postgraduate learning. Knowledge and positive attitudes toward technology and social influence were significantly associated with ChatGPT use, whereas demographic characteristics were not. These findings indicate that structured training, such as incorporating prompt-writing modules into research-focused courses, and clear institutional guidance may strengthen both competence and responsible engagement. Faculty development initiatives may further support this process by enabling educators to model appropriate and effective integration of ChatGPT in teaching and supervision. Future research should evaluate the impact of such initiatives on knowledge and usage patterns, providing evidence on whether targeted training and institutional support enhance both adoption and responsible practice in postgraduate education.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p align=\"center\" style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong><span lang=\"EN-GB\">Notes on Contributors<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span lang=\"EN-GB\">Luu Thi Thuy contributed to the conceptualisation, design of the work, and was responsible for reviewing and editing the manuscript. <\/span><span lang=\"EN-GB\"><\/span><\/p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span lang=\"EN-GB\">Tran Thi Hoang Oanh participated in the conceptualisation and design of the work, prepared the original draft, and revised the manuscript. <\/span><span lang=\"EN-GB\"><\/span><\/p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span lang=\"EN-GB\">Nguyen Thi Thu Thao was responsible for data analysis and original draft preparation. <\/span><span lang=\"EN-GB\"><\/span><\/p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span lang=\"EN-GB\">Dang Van Thoi contributed to the interpretation of data and original draft preparation. <\/span><span lang=\"EN-GB\"><\/span><\/p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span lang=\"EN-GB\">Le Thi Anh Tuyet worked on methodology, literature search, data analysis, and original draft preparation. <\/span><span lang=\"EN-GB\"><\/span><\/p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span lang=\"EN-GB\">Nguyen Hoa Van Chi participated in analysis, literature search, interpretation of data, and original draft preparation. <\/span><span lang=\"EN-GB\"><\/span><\/p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span lang=\"EN-GB\">Nguyen Huong Giang contributed to the literature search, data collection, and original draft preparation. <\/span><span lang=\"EN-GB\"><\/span><\/p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span lang=\"EN-GB\">Nguyen Thi Ai Ny was involved in data collection, interpretation of data, and original draft preparation. <\/span><span lang=\"EN-GB\"><\/span><\/p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span lang=\"EN-GB\">Tran Thi Thu Trang contributed to data collection, data analysis, and original draft preparation. <\/span><span lang=\"EN-GB\"><\/span><\/p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span lang=\"EN-GB\">All authors reviewed and approved the final manuscript.<\/span><span lang=\"EN-GB\"><\/span><\/p>\r\n<p align=\"center\" style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong><span lang=\"EN-GB\">Ethical Approval<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span lang=\"EN-GB\">Participation in this study was entirely voluntary.
