A systematic review on robot-assisted language learning for adults.
Review in Frontiers in psychology, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
In the 21st-century era of globalization, language proficiency is a pivotal connector across cultures, with artificial intelligence (AI) revolutionizing educational paradigms through Robot-Assisted Language Learning (RALL). This systematic review examines the role of RALL in adult second language acquisition, focusing on its pedagogical strategies and learner engagement. Unlike the previous systematic reviews that explore the multifaceted roles of robots in language learning, including as teachers, tutors, assistants, and peer learners, we identify explicit and implicit instructional strategies within RALL, highlighting the unique learning landscape of adult learners characterized by self-regulation and self-direction. We assess the latest advancements in RALL for adult learners through three research questions, compare the effectiveness of explicit versus implicit instructions, and investigate affective factors enhancing RALL performance. Our review contributes a comprehensive status analysis, in-depth exploration of interaction modes, and insights for future research directions, providing a roadmap for academic research and practical guidance for educators and robot developers. This study aims to optimize RALL strategies to better meet the needs of adult learners, fostering a more efficient and engaging language learning experience.
