Abstract

This study evaluates educational managers' readiness for ChatGPT adoption using the Technology Readiness Index (TRI) 2.0 model, focusing on optimism, innovativeness, discomfort, and insecurities. A 23-item readiness tool, designed on a 6-point semantic differential scale (low to high), achieved an excellent S-CVI value of 0.94 and high reliability (α = 0.790). Optimism and innovativeness reflect positive attitudes and openness toward AI, while discomfort and insecurities highlight barriers such as ethical concerns and uncertainties. The study underscores the need for training, ethical frameworks, and resources to build confidence and address challenges, offering a comprehensive framework for AI integration in higher education.
