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.

q3 i? Both genders significantly increased recognition of Netflix (Male +27.2%; Female +28.2%) and Spotify (Male +25.3%; Female +17.8%) as platforms using AI; females also gained on TikTok (+12.8%). → Jake Renzella 2026

Jake Renzella, Christian Bergh, Natasha Banks, and Alexandra Vassar. (2026). Gender Differences in AI Literacy Workshop Outcomes and Deepfake Engagement. https://arxiv.org/abs/2606.14718 doi:10.48550/arxiv.2606.14718

q3 · i? · causal · r1

Pre–post percentage-point changes in platform identification from the post-intervention survey (npost = 136). The article prints percentage changes with p-values but no effect sizes for these items; TikTok gain (+12.8%, p=.016) was female-only.

"Both genders showed an increase in recognition of AI’s role within enter- tainment platforms when identifying platforms that use AI, specifically Netflix (Male:+27.2%,p=<.001; Female:+28.2%,p=<.001) and Spotify (Male: +25.3%,p=.001; Female:+17.8%,p=.011)."

Discussion¶

Learner Variables¶

Digital Literacy — outcome: instruction changes it
Gender — moderator: an instructional effect differs by group

AI literacy interventions show a large, statistically significant overall positive effect on student AI literacy outcomes (g = 0.837) — the general claim this finding bears on, with the studies behind it
Both male and female students show statistically significant medium-sized gains in AI knowledge and confidence after a one-day AI literacy workshop — related
Female students show broader post-workshop gains than males, including significant increases in AI and computer science career interest, while male career interest remains unchanged — related
Deepfake behaviours show gender patterns: males more likely to have shared deepfakes, females more likely to have reported them — related
