• The Influence of Generative AI Usage Styles on Creative Self-Beliefs: Findings from a Longitudinal Study in Design Education (2026) · doi

  The findings of this study highlight the limitations of understanding the educational effects of generative AI solely in terms of its use or non-use, and suggest that its impact depends on usage style and the nature of the human–AI relationship. Although generative AI was primarily perceived as a tool for improving task efficiency, usage styles such as feedback provision and meaning summarization were associated with increases in CSE. However, this study has several limitations. First, the analysis was based on a single course context, and the sample was limited to 64 participants who completed all measurements; therefore, caution is required when generalizing the findings. Second, in the analysis by AI usage style, some categories included only a small number of participants, and thus, the results should be considered exploratory. Finally, the study was relatively short, and it is possible that the relationship between users and AI had not yet been sufficiently established. Future research should adopt a longer-term longitudinal approach to examine how interactions with generative AI evolve over time and how these changes influence CSB. In addition, incorporating factors such as perceived control and sense of agency toward AI into measurement frameworks may enable a more nuanced understanding of how human–AI relationships shape creativity.

• How Generative AI Tools Support the Learning of American Idioms: Insights from Moroccan Postgraduate Students (2026) · Journal of English Language Teaching and Applied Linguistics · doi

  The study only investigated the use of AI tools among Moroccan postgraduate students and may not be generalizable to other populations. - The research design may have been limited by the use of a self-administered questionnaire. - The study only collected data on the frequency of AI tool usage and may not have captured other important factors. - The results may have been influenced by the cultural context of the participants.
