Toward sustainable aesthetic education: exploring the impact of GenAl collaboration on students' critical thinking disposition.
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
Introduction: Artificial intelligence (AI)-enabled tools have increasingly influenced artistic creation processes in aesthetic education. However, empirical evidence regarding their impact on students' critical thinking disposition remains limited. This study examined whether integrating Generative Artificial Intelligence (GenAI) tools into an aesthetic learning workshop could enhance undergraduate students' critical thinking disposition and explored the underlying mechanisms. Methods: A mixed-methods design was employed. Sixty-three undergraduate arts and design students were randomly assigned to an experimental group ( Results: The experimental group demonstrated significantly greater improvement in critical thinking disposition than the control group ( Discussion: The findings suggest that GenAI tools can function as cognitive amplifiers in aesthetic learning by promoting more analytical, iterative, and reflective creative practices. This study provides empirical support for the integration of AI tools in design education and offers practical implications for fostering higher-order thinking skills in workshop-based learning environments.
