Integrating appreciative education with AI-assisted oral training for sustainable EFL learning: a study on speaking anxiety and oral proficiency.
Article in Frontiers in psychology, 2026. 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
Background: Foreign language speaking anxiety constitutes a persistent barrier to oral proficiency development among Chinese college students; however, prevailing technology-centered instructional approaches inadequately address learners' affective needs, thereby limiting their effectiveness in alleviating anxiety and fostering intrinsic motivation. This study proposed a blended pedagogical model-the "Praise-Speak" program that integrates offline appreciative education with AI-assisted oral training via the FIF platform. Methods: A two-phase mixed-methods design was employed. In the first phase, large-scale surveys ( Results: The findings demonstrated statistically significant improvements in IELTS speaking scores ( Conclusion: This study offers a replicable pedagogical framework that harmonizes technological empowerment with humanistic care, contributing to the realization of the United Nations Sustainable Development Goal 4.
