Subclaims¶

Reading the evidence codes

q is the design tier, i the impact, n the sample, and the kind with its r the rigour judged within that kind: what each code means.

This claim: no standardized effect is recorded in observations/ for it yet, so no benchmark reading is possible.

q2 i? AI-generated responses positively influenced students' self-efficacy in solving mathematics problems. → Oladayo 2026

Evidence¶

Oladayo 2026¶

Oladayo, C. E., & Diri, E. A. (2026). Assessing the Influence of AI-Generated Responses on Academic Achievement: An Ethical Perspective and Self-Efficacy of Delta State Secondary School Students, Nigeria.

q2 · i? · causal · r1

In the same quasi-experiment, self-efficacy was measured with the SQEIAIGRASQ questionnaire alongside the achievement test. The article reports that "AI-generated responses positively influenced the self-efficacy of students"; no effect size or test statistic is printed.

"Furthermore, AI-generated responses positively influenced the self-efficacy of students in solving mathematics problems."

Discussion¶

Learner Variables¶

Motivation — outcome: instruction changes it
Self-Efficacy — outcome: instruction changes it

Proximal goals and ability attributional feedback for early learning raise self-efficacy more than distant goals and effort feedback, by a review's report of earlier studies — the general claim this finding bears on, with the studies behind it
Students exposed to AI-generated responses achieved higher performance in solving quadratic equations than those taught through conventional teaching methods — related
AI interaction mode (Tutor, Collaborator, Solver) significantly influences high school students' observed behavior during problem-solving — related
Strengthening the student-educator relationship can contribute positively to marginalised students' self-efficacy and sense of belonging in higher education — related
Academic self-efficacy is associated with high school graduation rates and mathematics achievement — a broader claim this one bears on
The study's findings suggest AI-supported inquiry-based learning mainly supports creativity and affective development, with limited effect on problem-solving skills — related
AI-supported inquiry-based learning significantly improved secondary students' attitudes toward mathematics compared with traditional instruction — related
