The impact of educational digitalization on life satisfaction: an empirical analysis based on PISA 2022.
Article in Frontiers in psychology, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Introduction: The continuous and in-depth development of educational digitalization has become a key education development strategy for many countries around the world. Current research has paid considerable attention to the relationship between educational digitalization and educational outcomes, but the impact of educational digitalization on life satisfaction remains underexplored, lacking in-depth theoretical analysis and empirical evidence. Methods: The article first constructs a theoretical model of the impact of educational digitalization on students' life satisfaction based on relevant theories, followed by an empirical analysis. Large-scale cross-national data from PISA 2022 is used to empirically examine the direct and indirect effects of educational digitalization on students' life satisfaction. Results: The results indicate a significant positive effect of educational digitalization on students' life satisfaction. Specifically, learning interest and learning anxiety play significant mediating and chain-mediating roles in this relationship. This suggests that digitalization can enhance students' well-being by stimulating their interest in learning and alleviating learning anxiety. Furthermore, grade level significantly moderates this effect: among junior high school students, the pathway through interest and anxiety in improving life satisfaction is more pronounced. Discussion: Educational digitalization has a direct impact on students' life satisfaction, while interest and anxiety play mediating and chain-mediating roles in the effect of educational digitalization on life satisfaction. At the same time, grade level plays a moderating role in the impact of educational digitalization on students' life satisfaction. This study deepens the understanding of the mechanisms by which digitalization promotes student well-being and emphasizes that strategies for digital education should focus on stimulating interest and managing emotions, while implementing differentiated interventions for students of different age groups.
