Wilawan Phothong — Wed, 31 Dec 2025 00:00:00 +0700

This study aimed to investigate pre-service teachers’ acceptance and use of Generative Artificial Intelligence (Gen AI) in learning and to compare levels of acceptance and use between male and female pre-service teachers. The study was guided by the Unified Theory of Acceptance and Use of Technology 2 (UTAUT2), which consists of nine constructs. Data were collected from 624 pre-service teachers at the University of Phayao. The structural validity of the model was examined using Exploratory Factor Analysis (EFA), and the results indicated that eight out of the nine constructs were consistent with the theoretical framework. Descriptive statistics, including means and standard deviations, along with Mann-Whitney U test, were employed for data analysis. The findings are summarized as follows:

1) With regard to Preservice Teachers’ acceptance and use of Gen AI in learning, performance expectancy was identified as the dimension with the highest level of acceptance and use (M = 4.33, SD = 0.48), followed by effort expectancy (M = 4.25, SD = 0.71) and hedonic motivation (M = 3.90, SD = 0.91), respectively. In contrast, habit was the dimension with the lowest level of acceptance and use (M = 3.05, SD = 1.17). 2) A comparison of acceptance and use of Gen AI in learning between male and female pre-service teachers revealed that male students demonstrated higher levels of acceptance and use of AI than female students across almost all dimensions, except for habit, in which no statistically significant difference was found between the two groups.
