Abstract

This study aims to develop a Constitutional Civic Behavior model for Constitutional Law students in responding to the transformation of digital governance, which increasingly influences the relationship between citizens, technology, and digital governmental systems. The study examines the effects of Digital Political Literacy (DPL), Policy Literacy (PL), and AI Governance Awareness (AIGA) on Political Trust (PT), Constitutional Identity (CI), and Constitutional Civic Behavior (CCB), while also evaluating the mediating roles of PT and CI in the relationship between digital literacy, policy literacy, AI awareness, and constitutional civic behavior. Employing a quantitative survey design, data were collected from 120 respondents through purposive sampling. Research instruments utilized a 5-point Likert scale questionnaire, and data were analyzed using Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM). The findings reveal that among the direct effects tested, only Policy Literacy (PL) significantly influences Political Trust (PT), and Constitutional Identity (CI) significantly influences Constitutional Civic Behavior (CCB). Digital Political Literacy (DPL) and AI Governance Awareness (AIGA) do not show significant effects on PT or CI, while PT exhibits a negative and significant effect on CCB. Mediation analysis indicates that neither PT nor CI significantly mediates the relationship between DPL, PL, or AIGA and CCB. These findings underscore that the internalization of Constitutional Identity remains the dominant factor in shaping students' constitutional civic behavior.
