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? The specific indirect path through self-efficacy is significant (estimate = −0.207, 95% CI −0.308 to −0.136). → Jiang H 2026
q2 i? The sequential indirect path through self-efficacy then perceived usefulness is significant (estimate = −0.103, 95% CI −0.174 to −0.060). → Jiang H 2026
q2 i? Total indirect effects represent 69.5% of the standardized total association. → Jiang H 2026

q2 · i? · associational · r2
Bootstrap mediation analysis (5,000 resamples, 95% bias-corrected CIs) in AMOS on the 547-student sample. The article reports "the unstandardized total effect was −0.566" with indirect effects of 69.4% (69.5% standardized), and all three specific indirect paths significant at p < 0.01.
"the unstandardized total effect was −0.566, comprising a direct effect of −0.173 and total indirect effect of −0.393; the latter represented 69.4% of the total."
Discussion¶
Learner Variables¶
- Academic Anxiety — outcome: instruction changes it
Related Claims¶
- In a first-order support-dimension model, only informational support retained a significant path to AI learning self-efficacy — a narrower finding that bears on this claim
- Trust in AI and academic self-efficacy serially mediate the literacy-to-continued-use association (literacy → trust → self-efficacy → use) — related
- The serial indirect effect of AI literacy on continued use is weaker at higher levels of AI anxiety (moderated mediation) — related
- Perceived school support, AI learning self-efficacy, and AI perceived usefulness each show negative paths to AI learning anxiety — related
- Vocabulary mediates the association between academic self-efficacy and listening comprehension — related
