摘要

最近的研究将ChatGPT概念化为认知权威;然而,目前还没有研究考察认知信念和元认知准确性如何影响学生对chatgpt生成内容的实际使用,这些内容通常包含事实不准确。因此,本实验研究旨在考察大学生在独立写作(N = 49)或在ChatGPT帮助下写作(N = 49)时,如何整合专家写作和ChatGPT生成的文章中的正确和错误信息。使用chatgpt - 40的学生从专家撰写的文章(d = 0.64)和chatgpt生成的文章(d = 0.95)中整合了更多的正确信息,但chatgpt辅助写作并不影响从chatgpt生成的文章中获取的错误信息的数量。无论在何种情况下,层次回归显示,较低的元认知偏差与专家撰写的文章中正确信息的增加适度相关(R2 = 12%)。相反,较高的元认知偏差(R2 = 10%)和认知信念(R2 = 12%)与chatgpt生成的文章中包含的错误信息中度相关。这些研究结果表明,虽然ChatGPT辅助增强了正确的人类和人工智能生成内容的整合,但元认知技能对于降低整合不正确的人工智能生成信息的风险仍然至关重要。生成式人工智能工具,如ChatGPT,由于其权威的语气和类似人类的交互,越来越多地被视为认知权威。在教育和专业环境中,ChatGPT在提供正确的信息和提高生产力方面已经证明了它的实用性,但它也容易产生不准确、幻觉和误导性的内容。学生的认知信念和元认知技能预测了他们批判性地评估和整合来自多种资源的冲突信息的能力,特别是在互联网上搜索信息时。本研究通过实验检验了学生在独立写作或在ChatGPT的帮助下如何整合来自专家撰写和ChatGPT生成的文章的正确和不正确信息。研究结果表明,ChatGPT辅助提高了正确信息的包含,但并没有显著减少或增加不正确的ChatGPT生成内容的包含。无论学生是独立学习还是使用ChatGPT,元认知准确性和认知信念都是减少错误信息包含的关键因素。对实践和/或政策的影响生成式人工智能工具可以在特定场景中超越人类专家,几乎不需要评估。然而,在这些工具产生误导性或不正确内容的情况下,元认知技能和认知信念的应用对于辨别可靠信息和避免错误整合至关重要。教育干预应包括需要证明知识、评估资源以及反思人类和人工智能生成的文本的活动,以提高学生辨别准确信息和不准确信息的能力。专注于元认知准确性和认知意识的干预措施可以使个人能够批判性地评估和区分可靠和错误的信息,增强他们对错误信息的识别。

“ChatGPT can make mistakes. Check important info.” Epistemic beliefs and metacognitive accuracy in students' integration of ChatGPT content into academic writing

Recent studies have conceptualized ChatGPT as an epistemic authority; however, no research has yet examined how epistemic beliefs and metacognitive accuracy affect students' actual use of ChatGPT-generated content, which often contains factual inaccuracies. Therefore, the present experimental study aimed to examine how university students integrate correct and incorrect information from expert-written and ChatGPT-generated articles when writing independently (N = 49) or with ChatGPT assistance (N = 49). Students working with ChatGPT-4o integrated more correct information from both expert-written (d = 0.64) and ChatGPT-generated articles (d = 0.95), but ChatGPT-assisted writing did not affect the amount of incorrect information sourced from the ChatGPT-generated article. Regardless of the condition, hierarchical regressions revealed that lower metacognitive bias was moderately associated with increased inclusion of correct information from the expert-written article (R2 = 12%). Conversely, a higher metacognitive bias (R2 = 10%) and epistemic beliefs (R2 = 12%) were moderately related to the inclusion of incorrect information from ChatGPT-generated articles. These findings suggest that while ChatGPT assistance enhances the integration of correct human- and AI-generated content, metacognitive skills remain essential to mitigate the risks of incorporating incorrect AI-generated information.

Practitioner notes

What is already known about this topic

  • Generative AI tools, such as ChatGPT, are increasingly regarded as epistemic authorities due to their authoritative tone and human-like interaction.
  • ChatGPT has demonstrated utility in providing correct information and improving productivity in educational and professional contexts, but it is also prone to inaccuracies, hallucinations and misleading content.
  • Students' epistemic beliefs and metacognitive skills predict their ability to critically evaluate and integrate conflicting information from multiple resources, particularly when searching for information on the Internet.

What this paper adds

  • This study experimentally examines how students integrate correct and incorrect information from expert-written and ChatGPT-generated articles when writing independently or with ChatGPT's assistance.
  • The findings show that ChatGPT assistance improves the inclusion of correct information but does not significantly reduce or increase the inclusion of incorrect ChatGPT-generated content.
  • Metacognitive accuracy and epistemic beliefs are key factors in mitigating the inclusion of incorrect information, regardless of whether students work independently or with ChatGPT.

Implications for practice and/or policy

  • Generative AI tools can outperform human experts in specific scenarios, requiring little to no evaluation. However, in situations where these tools generate misleading or incorrect content, the application of metacognitive skills and epistemic beliefs becomes essential to discern reliable information and avoid the integration of errors.
  • Educational interventions should include activities requiring justification of knowledge, evaluation of resources and reflection upon human-generated and AI-generated texts to enhance students' ability to discern accurate from inaccurate information.
  • Interventions focused on metacognitive accuracy and epistemic awareness can empower individuals to critically evaluate and differentiate between reliable and erroneous information, enhancing their recognition of misinformation.
