摘要：
<jats:p>Generative artificial intelligence (GenAI) has taken educational settings by storm in the past year due to its transformative ability to impact school education. It is crucial to investigate pre-service teachers’ viewpoints to effectively incorporate GenAI tools into their instructional practices. Data gathered from 606 pre-service teachers were analyzed to explore the predictors of behavioral intention to design Gen AI-assisted teaching. Based on the Unified Theory of Acceptance and Use of Technology (UTAUT) model, this research integrates multiple variables such as Technological Pedagogical Content Knowledge (TPACK), GenAI anxiety, and technology self-efficacy. Our findings revealed that GenAI anxiety, social influence, and performance expectancy significantly predicted pre-service teachers’ behavioral intention to design GenAI-assisted teaching. However, effort expectancy and facilitating conditions were not statistically associated with pre-service teachers’ behavioral intentions. These findings offer significant insights into the intricate relationships between predictors that influence pre-service teachers’ perspectives and intentions regarding GenAI technology.</jats:p>

摘要：
BACKGROUND: Adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) may lead to increased problematic media use (PMU). However, whether parental adverse childhood experiences predict offspring PMU, and the mediating roles of psychological distress and harsh discipline, two common mechanisms underlying the intergenerational transmission of parental ACEs, in this relationship have not been examined in Chinese samples. OBJECTIVE: This study examined the serial mediating effects of psychological distress and harsh discipline on the association between parental ACEs and children's PMU. PARTICIPANTS AND SETTING: Participants were 617 three-year-old children and their parents (mean age of 33.24years, SD=4.01) from Wuhu, China. METHODS: Parents completed online questionnaires measuring ACEs, psychological distress, and demographic information in September 2022 (Time 1). Parents completed online questionnaires measuring harsh discipline and offspring PMU in September 2023 (Time 2). Macro Process 6 was used to test two serial mediating effects of psychological distress and corporal punishment, as well as psychological distress and psychological aggression. A total of 5000 bootstrap samples were used to estimate the 95% confidence intervals. A significant effect was indicated by a 95% confidence interval that did not include zero. RESULTS: The findings suggest that parental ACEs directly and positively predict offspring PMU. Psychological distress and harsh discipline mediate the association between maternal ACEs and offspring PMU parallelly and sequentially. CONCLUSIONS: Our findings highlight the importance of addressing psychological distress and harsh discipline when designing interventions targeting Chinese parents exposed to ACEs and their children.
