Comparative analysis of NCLEX-RN questions: a duel between ChatGPT and human expertise

Faculty focused on content preparation, assessment development, and quality control, with an emphasis on content oversight.

“While faculty focused on content preparation, assessment development, and quality control (Bumbach, 2024; Cox et al., 2023; Irwin et al., 2023; Liu et al., 2023; Thakur et al., 2023), with an emphasis on content oversight (Sessions and Ness, 2024)”

These tools demonstrated value in creating diverse assessment formats across multiple studies.

Student evidence supports cognitive scaffolding effectiveness and personalised learning support with GenAI.

“Complementing faculty applications, student evidence supports cogni­ tive scaffolding effectiveness and personalised learning support (Bumbach, 2024; Cox et al., 2023; Huang, 2023; Irwin et al., 2023; Kowitlawakul et al., 2024; Liu et al., 2023).”

Benefits of GenAI-enhanced simulation are particularly evident in mental health and paediatric scenarios, where communication skills are paramount.

“These benefits are particularly evident in mental health and paediatric scenarios, where communication skills are paramount (Cox et al., 2023; Jung, 2023; Sharma and Sharma, 2023; Sharpnack, 2024).”

ChatGPT was quick in developing NCLEX questions compared to nursing educators.

“Cox et al. (2023) compared the NCLEX developed by ChatGPT and nursing educators and found that ChatGPT was quick in developing the questions.”

ChatGPT can be useful in developing virtual patient simulation exercises for teaching students.

“or in developing virtual patient simulation exercises (Cox et al., 2023) for teaching students.”

Miscalculation and interpretation of laboratory values and limited timeframe of information generated are noted.

“Miscalculation and interpretation of laboratory values and limited timeframe of information generated (Cox et al., 2023) are also noted in these studies.”

ChatGPT application is useful for generating quick nursing care plans, developing and enhancing assessment modalities and providing feedback, and enhancing the structure of academic papers.

“Likewise, Dagcı et al. (2024) also found the ChatGPT application useful for generating quick nursing care plans, developing and enhancing assessment modalities and providing feedback (Chang et al., 2024), and enhancing the structure of academic papers (Cox et al., 2023).”
