Abstract
This study explores how university students perceive Generative AI (i.e., ChatGPT) potential to foster or hinder inclusion in sport education. Using an extended Technology Acceptance Model, the study examined factors such as perceived usefulness, ease of use, trust, novelty, and concerns. Survey data from 266 students revealed that trust and frequency of use predicted perceived opportunities for inclusion, while concerns and gender predicted perceived challenges. Two domain-specific constructs—opportunities for inclusion and challenges for inclusion in sport education—were developed and validated to capture this duality. Findings highlight the need for trust-building, inclusive practices, and gender-sensitive strategies in AI-supported education.
