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? Truth-seeking (t=-5.138, p<0.001) and CT Self-confidence (t=-3.038, p=0.003) showed significant upward trends after the intervention; no effect sizes are printed for these gains. → Qi Zhu 2026
Evidence¶
Qi Zhu 2026¶
Qi Zhu, Xiaoming Zhai, Yan Zou, Chunlei Gao. (2026). Using AI-Generated Feedback to Improve Critical Thinking and Writing Proficiency. https://orcid.org/0000-0003-4519-1931 doi:10.1007/978-3-032-29788-4_37
q2 · i? · design · r2
Sub-dimension paired-sample t-tests on the cohort's CCTDI-adapted scores after the intervention. The article reports that Truth-seeking and CT Self-confidence "exhibited signifi- cant upward trends" with the printed t and p values; no effect size is given.
"Scores in Truth - seek- ing (t=-5.138, p<0.001) and CT Self-confidence (t=-3.038, p=0.003) exhibited signifi- cant upward trends."
Discussion¶
Learner Variables¶
- Critical Thinking — outcome: instruction changes it
Related Claims¶
- Cognitive Maturity disposition scores significantly declined during the WISE Agent intervention, interpreted as de-centering of naive optimism — related
- Critical thinking improvement differed by proficiency level: high-level students gained 18%, intermediate 12%, and low-level 8%, with asymmetric feedback adaptation — related
- A three-month WISE Agent intervention did not significantly increase sixth-graders' aggregate critical thinking disposition scores — related
- AI Paradox: students report higher confidence in critical AI awareness than in operational AI usage (p = 0.015) — related
- HOTS-oriented teaching improves disposition towards critical thinking subscales including truth-seeking, open-mindedness, self-confidence, and maturity — a broader claim this one bears on
