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? An independent-samples t-test found no statistically significant difference in AI literacy scores between urban and rural participants (t = 1.90, p = 0.06; Cohen's d = 0.12). → Liu Qingqi 2026
Evidence¶
Liu Qingqi 2026¶
Liu Qingqi, Miao Wenjiao, Li Jingjing, Lei Yuju. (2026). The Six-Facet Artificial Intelligence Literacy Questionnaire (SFAILQ): Assessing AI Literacy in Adolescents, Young Adults, and Midlife Adults. Behavioral Sciences, 16(7), 1110. https://doi.org/10.3390/bs16071110
q2 · i? · associational · r2
Independent-samples t-test comparing urban (n = 747, M = 3.80, SD = 0.49) and rural (n = 479, M = 3.72, SD = 0.85) participants' AI literacy scores in Sample 2. The printed d = 0.12 is below 0.2, a negligible difference; equivalence was not tested.
"An independent-samples t-test in the second split-half sample (N2 = 1226) revealed no statistically significant difference in AI literacy scores between urban and rural participants at the conventional α = 0.05 level (t = 1.90, p = 0.06; urban: n = 747, M = 3.80, SD = 0.49; rural: n = 479, M = 3.72, SD = 0.85; Cohen’s d = 0.12)"
