Perceived AI interactivity and Chinese EFL learners' motivated learning behaviors: the moderating role of daily AI usage duration.
Article in Frontiers in psychology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
The integration of Artificial intelligence (AI) tools in language education has reshaped learners' perceptions and behavioral responses. While earlier studies have examined the cognitive and affective effects of learners' perceived AI interactivity (PAII), less is known about its influence on motivated behavioral engagement. Motivated learning behaviors (MLBs) are crucial for sustained language learning. Accordingly, this study investigated how four dimensions of PAII predict MLBs among 171 Chinese English as a foreign language (EFL) learners, and whether daily AI usage duration (DAIUD) moderates these effects. Participants completed a validated questionnaire measuring PAII, MLBs, and DAIUD. Statistical results indicated that all four PAII dimensions significantly and positively predicted MLBs, with LC exerting the strongest predictive effect and R the weakest. Moreover, DAIUD significantly moderated the paths for R, LC, and P, strengthening their positive associations with MLBs, but it did not significantly moderate the LE path. This study expands the literature by applying a multidimensional construct of PAII to explain learners' MLBs in Chinese EFL contexts. Moreover, these findings offer practical implications for designing learner-centered AI tools, and for educators providing tailored guidance for EFL learners in AI-supported learning.
