Background Adopting generative artificial intelligence (GenAI) in education rapidly transforms learning environments, yet nursing students’ acceptance and anxiety toward these technologies remain underexplored in Middle Eastern contexts. This study extends the Technology Acceptance Model (TAM) by incorporating constructs such as Facilitating Conditions (FC) and Social Influence (SI). It investigates the moderating role of Anxiety on Behavioral Intention to Use (BIU) generative AI tools. Methods A cross-sectional study was conducted among 1,055 undergraduate nursing students across four Middle Eastern countries, including Egypt, Jordan, Saudi Arabia, and Yemen. Data were collected using a structured questionnaire comprising the Generative Artificial Intelligence Acceptance Scale and the Artificial Intelligence Anxiety Scale. Structural equation modeling was employed to evaluate relationships among Performance Expectancy (PE), Effort Expectancy (EE), FC, SI, and BIU, with Anxiety as a moderator. Descriptive statistics, confirmatory factor analysis, and path analysis were performed using SPSS and Python’s semopy library. Results The model demonstrated strong explanatory power, with 75.09% of the variance in BIU explained by the TAM constructs and Anxiety. Path coefficients revealed significant positive relationships between PE (β=0.477, p<0.001), EE (β=0.293, p<0.001), FC (β=0.189, p<0.001), and SI (β=0.308, p<0.001) and BIU. Anxiety had the strongest moderating effect (β=0.552, p<0.001), indicating its critical role in shaping behavioral intentions. Gender, year of study, and access to technology emerged as significant demographic variables influencing acceptance and anxiety levels.
