q3 i? Across the six report-level dimensions, means ranged from 4.11 to 4.38, with relevance, intention to use, and satisfaction highest and cognitive load lowest with the widest dispersion. → Mendonça PC 2026

Evidence¶

Mendonça PC 2026¶

Mendonça PC, Quintal F, Figueiredo M and Mendonça F (2026) Perceived usefulness and intention to use large language model-generated feedback across three educational levels: a user-centred study in programming. Front. Educ. 11:1934069. https://doi.org/10.3389/feduc.2026.1934069

q3 · i? · associational · r1

Report-level ratings from 140 students covering 237 consolidated performance reports generated by the platform. The study reports "Cognitive load (M = 4.11) had the lowest, with the widest dispersion (SD = 0.88, IQR = 1.50)"; favourable ratings ranged from 74.3% (cognitive load) to 86.4% (relevance).

"Relevance (M = 4.38), Intention to use (M = 4.35), and Satisfaction (M = 4.34) had the highest means, and Cognitive load (M = 4.11) had the lowest, with the widest dispersion (SD = 0.88, IQR = 1.50)."
