Abstract Numerous quantitative studies have investigated how artificial intelligence (AI) impacts the development of second language (L2). While individual studies delve into the effects of AI interventions on L2 learning, a meta-analysis provides a comprehensive evaluation of AI’s effectiveness in second language acquisition (SLA). Despite the growing body of meta-analytical research in AI-assisted language learning, several potential moderators have not been thoroughly investigated in previous meta-analyses. T…
The gain
A meta-analysis of 15 studies with 2,156 participants found AI-assisted second-language learning had a large positive effect (d = 1.167) after correcting for measurement and sampling error.
What this doesn’t fix
The Q statistic showed that true effect sizes varied significantly across the included studies, so the single pooled figure of d = 1.167 does not apply uniformly to every learning context.

How to check it yourself, without trusting this page
Download any version from /api/record/TRV-2026-2840 and hash its canonical field yourself, for example with shasum -a 256. You should get its content_hash. Each version’s text also ends with prev:and the hash of the version before it (version 1 points to 64 zeros). If anyone had changed a single character of any version after it was saved, those hashes wouldn’t line up.
