大学生用AI辅助阅读,但多依赖摘要跳读,深度思考被压缩。

How College Students Use AI to Navigate Course Readings: Evidence from an Eight-Week Study

  • 通过8周跟踪15名学生,分析838条提问,分出解码、理解、推理、元认知四类
  • 60%提问聚焦理解,推理仅占30%,且认知进程常被提前终止
  • 学生明知高效提问需努力,却仍为省时用AI摘要筛选重点内容

大学生越来越多地使用AI聊天机器人辅助学术阅读,但我们对这些互动如何影响其阅读体验和认知参与仍缺乏细致理解。本研究开展为期八周的纵向研究,包含15名本科生在一门课程中使用AI支持指定阅读材料。共收集239次阅读会话中的838条提问,并构建编码框架,将提问分为四大认知主题:解码(2.1%)、理解(59.6%)、推理(29.8%)和元认知(8.5%)。大多数会话(72%)恰好包含三个提问,即阅读任务的最低要求。会话内学生呈现从理解向推理自然推进的认知趋势,但该过程常被中断。八周内学生参与模式保持稳定,个体差异显著持续存在。定性分析揭示意图与行为之间的差距:学生虽意识到有效提问需投入,却极少实践,效率成为主导动机。此外,学生根据兴趣与学业压力策略性调整参与程度,形成一种新型阅读模式——通过AI生成的摘要作为主材料,筛选出值得深入阅读的段落。我们讨论了旨在促进持续认知投入的AI阅读系统设计启示。

原文摘要 · Abstract (English)

College students increasingly use AI chatbots to support academic reading, yet we lack granular understanding of how these interactions shape their reading experience and cognitive engagement. We conducted an eight-week longitudinal study with 15 undergraduates who used AI to support assigned readings in a course. We collected 838 prompts across 239 reading sessions and developed a coding schema categorizing prompts into four cognitive themes: Decoding, Comprehension, Reasoning, and Metacognition. Comprehension prompts dominated (59.6%), with Reasoning (29.8%), Metacognition (8.5%), and Decoding (2.1%) less frequent. Most sessions (72%) contained exactly three prompts, the required minimum of the reading assignment. Within sessions, students showed natural cognitive progression from comprehension toward reasoning, but this progression was truncated. Across eight weeks, students' engagement patterns remained stable, with substantial individual differences persisting throughout. Qualitative analysis revealed an intention-behavior gap: students recognized that effective prompting required effort but rarely applied this knowledge, with efficiency emerging as the primary driver. Students also strategically triaged their engagement based on interest and academic pressures, exhibiting a novel pattern of reading through AI rather than with it: using AI-generated summaries as primary material to filter which sections merited deeper attention. We discuss design implications for AI reading systems that scaffold sustained cognitive engagement.
