About this trial
Gynecologists frequently overestimate the benefits and safety of ovarian cancer screening. AI-supported discussions may help correct these misperceptions. This study tests whether an AI-guided conversation about the evidence on ovarian cancer screening can improve gynecologists' knowledge and reduce non-evidence-based screening recommendations, compared with a control AI discussion on ovarian cancer prevalence.

Treatments tested in this trial
ChatGPT - Control
BehavioralThree-turn conversation; discusses ovarian cancer risk and epidemiology; avoids screening topics; concise responses (5-8 sentences). Mode of Delivery: Online chat interface; participant interacts directly with ChatGPT.
ChatGPT - Evidence-Based Screening Discussion
BehavioralThree-turn conversation; asks participants about screening rationale; provides evidence-based info on benefits/harms, trial data, guideline positions; concise responses (5-8 sentences). Mode of Delivery: Online chat interface; participant interacts directly with ChatGPT.
Treatment groups
Trial outcomes
Primary outcomes
Change in intention to recommend ovarian cancer screening
Difference in participants' self-reported frequency of recommending ovarian cancer screening to average-risk women in the future after the ChatGPT interaction and their self-reported frequency of recommending the screening in the past.
Secondary outcomes
Change in benefit-harm ratio evaluation of ovarian cancer screenings
Difference between the self-reported benefit-harm ratio evaluation before and after the ChatGPT interaction.
Accuracy of knowledge regarding ovarian cancer screening evidence
Participants' understanding of benefits, harms, and guideline recommendations for ovarian cancer screening, assessed via survey questions
