Abstract

The integration of Generative Artificial Intelligence (GenAI) in English as a Foreign Language (EFL) writing instruction has transformed how students develop both creative and academic writing skills. However, its widespread use raises concerns about overreliance, which may affect students’ autonomy and critical thinking. This study investigates: (1) the impact of GenAI on creative writing quality, particularly originality, cognitive flexibility, and expressive innovation; (2) its role in enhancing structural academic writing, including coherence, organization, and grammatical accuracy; and (3) students’ perceptions of autonomy and dependence in AI-assisted writing. Using a mixed-methods sequential explanatory design, the study involved 80 undergraduate students divided into experimental and control groups. Quantitative data were analyzed using independent-samples t-tests and MANOVA, while qualitative data were examined through thematic analysis. The findings indicate that GenAI significantly improves both creative and structural writing performance while fostering learner autonomy, although risks of emerging dependency remain. Overall, this study highlights the importance of a balanced and pedagogically guided integration of GenAI to enhance writing quality while sustaining students’ creativity, autonomy, and critical thinking.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the effect of Moral Spiritual Integrated Digital Materials and Perceived Ease of Use on Ethical Language Use Behavior in digital-based language learning, considering the role of Learning Enjoyment and Student Interest as mediating variables. Using a quantitative survey method, data were collected from 150 students through questionnaires. The respondents were selected using purposive sampling, with the criterion that they had used digital learning media in the learning process. Data analysis was performed using Structural Equation Modelling with Partial Least Squares (SEM-PLS), aided by the SmartPLS application. The results showed that Moral Spiritual Integrated Digital Materials and Perceived Ease of Use had a significant positive effect on Learning Enjoyment. Additionallu, Perceived Ease of Use also has a significant positive effect on Ethical Language Use Behavior. Furthermore, Learning Enjoyment is proven to have a significant positive effect on Student Interest. However, the direct effect of Moral Spiritual Integrated Digital Materials on Ethical Language Use Behavior is not significant. The analysis results also show that Learning Enjoyment and Student Interest act as mediating variables in the relationship between independent variables and Ethical Language Use Behavior.
