{"title":"The Impact of GenAI-Integrated Instruction on EFL Learners’ Willingness to Communicate, Motivation, and Well-Being in Tertiary Education: A Mixed-Effects Modelling Approach","authors":"Yan Mao,&nbsp;Haiyan Wu,&nbsp;Jia Li","doi":"10.1111/ejed.70849","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1111/ejed.70849","url":null,"abstract":"<p>Willingness to communicate (WTC) is recognised as a vital element in English as a Foreign Language (EFL) learning; however, developing students' WTC in tertiary education is usually a constant challenge. Likewise, improving students' well-being and motivation is equally significant as these constructs support better engagement and successful language achievement among undergraduate students. Despite the quick incorporation of Generative Artificial Intelligence (GenAI) in education, there remains a critical research gap concerning the effect of GenAI-supported instruction on the intersection of learners' well-being, motivational states, and communicative behaviours. Based on Self-determination Theory (SDT), which underscores the significance of meeting students' primary psychological needs, the current research investigates the way GenAI-based teaching can affect EFL students' well-being, motivation, and WTC. The participants were 78 Chinese EFL learners who were assigned to either an experimental group (EXPG) that received GenAI-supported instruction through ChatGPT or a control group (CG) that received conventional instruction. Three assessment points were used to collect data, namely, a pre-test, an instant post-test given at the final stage of intervention, and a delayed post-test done after 10 weeks. Using Mixed-Effects Modelling (MEM), the data were analysed to investigate variations over time and variations between groups. The strongest effect was observed for WTC (<i>d</i> = 1.89), followed by motivation (<i>d</i> = 1.34) and well-being (<i>d</i> = 1.16). The results indicated a significant enhancement in well-being, motivation, and WTC among students within the EXPG in comparison to those within the CG. By offering empirical evidence of its effect on students' emotional, motivational, and communicative experiences in class settings, the present research can contribute to the increasing body of studies on the usage of GenAI in teaching.</p>","PeriodicalId":47585,"journal":{"name":"European Journal of Education","volume":"61 4","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":5.3,"publicationDate":"2026-09-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1111/ejed.70849","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148942983","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"教育学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

To address this, the present study examines the mediating role of academic buoyancy and the moderating effect of educational level in this relationship. A survey of 1609 undergraduate and postgraduate English majors from Chinese universities was conducted to examine the relationships between FLA and four types of learning strategies: memorization, elaboration, cooperation and control strategies. Additionally, the study investigated the mediating role of academic buoyancy and the moderating role of educational level in these relationships. It was found that FLA was negatively associated with academic buoyancy and all four learning strategies, whereas both academic buoyancy and educational level demonstrated positive associations with these strategies. Academic buoyancy predominantly mediated the relationship between FLA and memorization, and that between FLA and cooperation, while partially mediating the relationship between FLA and elaboration and that between FLA and control strategies. Furthermore, educational level significantly moderated the effect of FLA on elaboration specifically. These findings highlight the value of attending to positive emotions in language education and reveal how educational level shapes strategy use.

Instead, both resilience and teacher efficacy mediated the relationships between job demands, job resources and work engagement, whereas only resilience mediated the relationships between job demands, job resources and emotional exhaustion. The interview data further indicated that job demands were experienced as a clear source of fatigue but not necessarily as a reason to disengage from teaching, while resources became effective mainly when they were usable, timely, and connected to concrete problems of practice.
