Data Sheet 1_Generative AI in creative education: baseline-linked evidence on learning processes, artistic performance, and authorship.pdf

This study investigates AI-supported creative learning in an undergraduate art course.</p>Methods<p>The study used linked data from 133 students, including prior course performance, final creative-performance assessment, and post-project questionnaire responses.

AI use was operationalized through two dimensions: assistive use for ideation, refinement, process management, and technique learning, and content-generative use involving AI contributions to creative output. The analysis combined baseline-adjusted outcome models, performance-change models, propensity-score adjustment, AI-use intensity comparisons, and robustness checks across alternative AI-use definitions.</p>Results<p>The findings show a clear process-outcome decoupling pattern.
