1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

This study investigates the relationship between AI ethics literacy and students' self-rated learning competence using AI by developing a comprehensive framework of AI ethics literacy comprising knowledge, attitude, and competence dimensions. Data were collected from 482 college students through an online questionnaire and analyzed using Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM). Key findings reveal that: (1) AI ethics knowledge is primarily characterized by four ethical principles: fairness and inclusivity, privacy protection, human-centricity, and responsibility and accountability; (2) AI ethics knowledge positively influences both AI ethics attitude and competence; and (3) AI ethics attitude and competence significantly enhance students' self-rated learning competence using AI. This research contributes a novel theoretical framework for understanding AI ethics literacy while providing practical insights for cultivating students' self-rated learning competence using AI.
