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? Clear rules strengthened both the protective pattern for reflective use and the risk pattern for unreflective use regarding academic impostor syndrome. → Fan Y 2026

Fan Y 2026¶
Fan Y, Li X and Zhang R (2026). Family-school autonomy support for children's responsible use of generative artificial intelligence: a self-determination theory synthesis and developmental research agenda. Front. Psychol. 17:1969217. https://doi.org/10.3389/fpsyg.2026.1969217
q2 · i? · review · r2
The review reports, citing Wang et al. (2026), that "clear rules strengthened both the protective pattern for reflection and the risk pattern for unreflective use" in relation to academic impostor syndrome. The review presents this as evidence that policy clarity interacts with use style rather than uniformly reducing risk.
"Perceived policy clarity amplified the contrasting associations of reflective and unreflective use with impostor syndrome: clear rules strengthened both the protective pattern for reflection and the risk pattern for unreflective use"
Discussion¶
Related Claims¶
- Unclear policy, workload pressure, and lack of mechanisms to monitor student AI use undermined staff confidence and perceived fairness during AIAS implementation — related
- In the pooled OLS model of current AI-use intensity, perceived usefulness (β = 0.322) and competence (β = 0.268) are the strongest positive associations, while institutional policy clarity shows no association after adjustment — related
- Perceived usefulness has the strongest standardized positive association with trust in AI (β = 0.402), with institutional policy clarity positively but more weakly associated (β = 0.223) in the pooled OLS trust model — related
- Perceived clarity of AI rules is significantly dependent on discipline, with the most restrictive subjects also the least clear — related
- GenAI learning outcomes depend more on use quality (capability, reflective engagement, retained agency) than on frequency of use — a broader claim this one bears on
