Inteligencia Artificial, autoeficacia, rendimiento académico, diferencias de género, confianza, educación superior, uso de las tecnologíasResumen
Este estudio explora cómo el colectivo estudiantil universitario interactúa con las herramientas de Inteligencia Artificial (IA) y cómo estas interacciones afectan su autoeficacia académica. El objetivo es identificar las implicaciones psicológicas y conductuales del uso de la IA en la educación superior, en particular en relación con la autoconfianza, la autonomía, el género y la percepción de competencia de los/as estudiantes.
Mediante un diseño de investigación cuantitativa, se encuestó a 226 estudiantes universitarios españoles mediante un cuestionario en línea ad hoc. El instrumento midió los patrones de uso de la IA, la utilidad percibida y las limitaciones de las herramientas de IA, y la autoeficacia de los estudiantes. Se emplearon modelos de ecuaciones estructurales para analizar las relaciones entre los beneficios percibidos de la IA, el género y la autoeficacia académica.
Los resultados muestran una relación significativa y positiva entre la percepción de la utilidad de la IA por parte de los/as estudiantes y su autoeficacia. No se encontraron diferencias de género estadísticamente significativas ni en la adopción de la IA ni en la manifestación del efecto Dunning-Kruger. El uso general de herramientas de IA se asoció positivamente con la competencia académica percibida por los/as estudiantes.
Este artículo contribuye a la creciente literatura sobre la IA en la educación al centrarse en sus efectos psicológicos, más allá del rendimiento técnico. El estudio también aumenta la conciencia sobre los riesgos de la dependencia excesiva y la falsa autoconfianza, y pide una integración más equilibrada de la IA en los entornos académicos.
