The mediating and moderating roles of achievement goal orientation in the relationship between AI writing feedback and English writing self-efficacy among Chinese university students.

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
This study investigates how AI-generated writing feedback influences English writing self-efficacy among Chinese university students and examines the dual role of achievement goal orientation as both a mediator and a moderator in this relationship. A quasi-experimental pretest-posttest design was implemented with 148 s-year English majors over a 12-week semester. Participants in the experimental group received feedback from a GPT-4-based automated evaluation platform, while the control group received conventional teacher feedback. Writing self-efficacy, achievement goal orientation, and AI feedback perception were measured at both time points. Results indicated that AI feedback significantly enhanced writing self-efficacy (
