However, the integration of robot-assisted technology into surgical training curricula in Chinese medical colleges remains limited. This pilot implementation study aims to evaluate the usability, acceptance, and perceived educational value of the Jingfeng Multi-port Robot-Assisted Surgical System in a structured surgical training program in China.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Method<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>The validity of the robot-assisted surgical system was first assessed using the System Usability Scale (SUS).

Questionnaire responses indicated positive participant perceptions regarding system usability and potential educational value, reflecting user acceptance rather than objectively measured educational effectiveness. Participants reported favorable views on perceived enhancements in learning efficiency, system characteristics, and ease of operation. Notably, male users gave significantly higher ratings (5.94\u2009\u00b1\u20091.26) than their female counterparts (4.78\u2009\u00b1\u20091.36) on the \u201cEase of operation\u201d factor (\n                      <jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>\n                      \u2009=\u20090.011), suggesting a stronger perception of the system's user-friendliness among male participants.\n                    <\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>In this observational pilot study, participants reported positive perceptions of the training mode, including perceived potential benefits for learning efficiency, motivation, and enjoyment.
