Therefore, there is a need to understand how physical therapists (PTs) perceive AI technologies in clinical practice. ## Objective This study aimed to investigate the knowledge and attitude of PTs regarding AI applications in rehabilitation based on multiple explanatory factors. ## Methods A web-based Google Form survey, which was divided into 4 sections, was used to collect the data.

We found a statistically significant difference in the PTs’ knowledge regarding AI applications in the rehabilitation field based on sex (odds ratio [OR] 2.43, 95% CI 1.53-3.87; P<.001). In addition, experience (OR 1.79, 95% CI 1.11-2.87; P=.02) and educational qualification (OR 1.68, 95% CI 1.05-2.70; P=.03) were found to be significant predictors of knowledge about AI applications.
