SummaryDevelops and validates the GenAI-RTS, a 20-item scale measuring four types of generative AI reliance in undergraduate writing: Strategic (two facets), Instrumental, Dependent, and Dialogic. Validated with 382 undergraduates and 14 interviews using CFA and Rasch analysis, with measurement invariance across gender, first-generation status, and major.
Why it mattersFirst psychometrically validated instrument for profiling how students actually rely on GenAI in writing, with measurement invariance across subgroups. Useful for educators and researchers building AI literacy interventions.
