Psychol."],"abstract":"<jats:p>The rapid proliferation of artificial intelligence (AI) in higher education has positioned AI literacy as an essential student competency, yet the mechanistic pathways linking this competency to academic outcomes remain insufficiently understood. This study investigates the direct and indirect effects of AI literacy on learning engagement, with a specific focus on the mediating role of psychological capital (PsyCap) and the moderating role of career commitment.Employing a stratified random sampling design, we conducted a cross-sectional questionnaire survey among 1,198 undergraduate students across four universities in Zhengzhou, Henan Province. Path analysis was performed using partial least squares structural equation modeling (PLS\u2011SEM), and bootstrap resampling was applied to test both mediation and moderated mediation effects.The results reveal that AI literacy exerts a direct, positive influence on learning engagement. Notably, psychological capital partially mediates this relationship, indicating that AI literacy not only directly drives engagement but also indirectly facilitates it by enhancing students\u2019 self\u2011efficacy, hope, optimism, and resilience. Furthermore, career commitment moderates the effect of psychological capital on learning engagement: the indirect effect of AI literacy through psychological capital becomes stronger as students\u2019 career commitment intensifies.Collectively, these findings delineate a resource\u2011transformation pathway\u2014from AI literacy to psychological capital to learning engagement\u2014and identify career commitment as a critical boundary condition. The results carry theoretical implications for understanding the interplay between digital competencies and positive psychological resources, and offer practical guidance for designing educational interventions that synergistically integrate AI training, psychological capital cultivation, and professional identity reinforcement in the era of AI\u2011enhanced education.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3389\/fpsyg.2026.1892204","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2026,9,11]],"date-time":"2026-09-11T05:29:00Z","timestamp":1789104540000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3389\/crossmark-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["The impact of artificial intelligence literacy on learning engagement among university students: the mediating role of psychological capital and the moderating role of professional identity"],"prefix":"10.3389","volume":"17","author":[{"given":"Ning","family":"Wang","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Tourism Management, Henan Finance University","place":["Zhengzhou, China"]}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"1965","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2026,9,11]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"101674141-1674141","DOI":"10.3389\/FEDUC.2025.1674141","article-title":"ChatGPT and intrinsic motivation in higher education: a TAM-based study","volume":"10","author":"Afzaal","year":"2025","journal-title":"Front.
