AI导师与顽固迷思:教育中个性化对话干预的证据

AI Tutors vs. Tenacious Myths: Evidence from Personalised Dialogue Interventions in Education

Brooklyn J. Corbett, Jason M. Tangen

AI总结:

研究通过N=375的预注册实验比较个性化AI对话、教科书反驳与中性对话,发现AI对话可更快纠正心理学迷思,但长期效果需间隔强化维持。

摘要:

心理学和教育中的错误观念尽管存在明确的相反证据,却仍然持续存在,并抵制传统纠正方法。本研究考察了个性化AI对话能否有效纠正这些顽固信念。在一项预注册实验中(N = 375),持有强烈心理学错误观念的参与者接受三种干预之一:(1)针对其特定错误观念的个性化AI对话;(2)一般的教科书式反驳;或(3)中性AI对话(对照)。结果显示,与教科书阅读和中性对话相比,个性化AI对话在即时信念降低上产生了显著更大的效果。这一优势在10天随访时仍然保持,但到2个月时减弱;此时AI对话与教科书条件趋于一致,同时二者仍优于对照组。两种AI条件都产生了显著高于教科书阅读的参与度和信心,表明对话互动具有动机收益。这些发现证明,AI对话能够通过个性化、互动式参与加速初始信念纠正,这种参与会扰乱维持错误观念的认知过程。然而,效果随时间趋于一致表明,短暂干预需要强化才能带来持久改变。未来应用应将AI辅导整合到具有间隔强化的结构化教育项目中,以维持个性化对话的初始优势。

英文摘要:

Misconceptions in psychology and education persist despite clear contradictory evidence, resisting traditional correction methods. This study investigated whether personalised AI dialogue could effectively correct these stubborn beliefs. In a preregistered experiment (N = 375), participants holding strong psychology misconceptions engaged in one of three interventions: (1) personalised AI dialogue targeting their specific misconception, (2) generic textbook-style refutation, or (3) neutral AI dialogue (control). Results showed that personalised AI dialogue produced significantly larger immediate belief reductions compared to both textbook reading and neutral dialogue. This advantage persisted at 10-day follow-up but diminished by 2 months, where AI dialogue and textbook conditions converged while both remained superior to control. Both AI conditions generated significantly higher engagement and confidence than textbook reading, demonstrating the motivational benefits of conversational interaction. These findings demonstrate that AI dialogue can accelerate initial belief correction through personalised, interactive engagement that disrupts the cognitive processes maintaining misconceptions. However, the convergence of effects over time suggests brief interventions require reinforcement for lasting change. Future applications should integrate AI tutoring into structured educational programs with spaced reinforcement to sustain the initial advantages of personalised dialogue.
