q2 i1 Higher AI-assisted autonomous learning is associated with higher reduced academic accomplishment (β = 0.112, p = 0.001). → Wang W and Zhang Q 2026

Evidence¶

Wang W and Zhang Q 2026¶

Wang W and Zhang Q (2026). AI-assisted autonomous learning and reduced academic accomplishment in vocational higher education: the mediating role of hardiness. Front. Psychol. 17:1848291. https://doi.org/10.3389/fpsyg.2026.1848291

q2 · i1 · associational · r2

Structural equation model on the same 1,264-student survey sample, with reduced academic accomplishment as the primary outcome. The direct path was "significant and positive, β = 0.112, SE = 0.030, CR = 3.242, p = 0.001"; the model fit indices were χ2/df = 3.693, CFI = 0.949, RMSEA = 0.065.

"The path from AI-assisted autono-mous learning to reduced academic accomplishment was significant and positive, β = 0.112, SE = 0.030, CR = 3.242, p = 0.001."
