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? Reported AI-service use prevalence was similar across groups (students 83.08%, staff 85.48%, faculty 76.80%), but weekly use was far lower among staff (15.79%) than students (44.05%). → Braun 2026

q3 · i? · associational · r2
Descriptive analysis of the cross-sectional survey (Table 1) shows reported AI-service use of 82.41% overall, while weekly use on item 1.4 was 44.05% for students, 21.60% for faculty, and 15.79% for administrative staff among valid respondents.
"On item 1.4, the proportion reporting AI use one to three times per week or more often among respondents with valid data was 44.05% for students, 21.60% for faculty, and 15.79% for administrative staff."
Discussion¶
Related Claims¶
- A pronounced AI adaptation gap exists across university groups: students report higher current AI-use intensity and perceived usefulness than faculty and administrative staff, whereas staff report stronger academic integrity concerns and greater endorsement of responsible-use norms — a broader claim this one bears on
- Only 11% of surveyed educators can recommend specialized AI services, with ChatGPT dominating recommendations at 44% — related
- Among students, longer AI-use experience is monotonically associated with higher perceived usefulness (Spearman's r = 0.327), though self-selection may explain part of the pattern — related
