This study examined developmental trajectories of student engagement and SRL across a sequential implementation comprising a standard flipped phase followed by a progressively scaffolded AI-enhanced phase, representing one of the earliest longitudinal investigations of AI-enhanced flipped learning in a Central Asian higher education context.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Using a within-subjects longitudinal design, 211 undergraduate students at a public university in Mongolia were followed across four measurement occasions (Weeks 1, 6, 11, and 15) within a 16-week course, with quantitative data collected across 15 weeks of instruction. Engagement and SRL were assessed across a standard flipped phase (Weeks 1\u20136) and a progressively scaffolded AI-enhanced phase (Weeks 7\u201315). Metacognitive self-regulation was examined as a potential mediator of the longitudinal relationship between agentic engagement and academic achievement using a cross-lagged panel model (Mplus 8.3, ML estimator, 1,000 bootstrap samples).<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>\n                      Linear mixed-model analyses revealed significant trajectories for all engagement and SRL subscales (all\n                      <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\n                      \u2264 0.004, \u03b7\n                      <jats:sup>2<\/jats:sup>\n                      <jats:sub>\n                        <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\n                      <\/jats:sub>\n                      = 0.021\u20130.111). All six SRL subscales remained stable during the standard flipped phase before increasing significantly during the AI-enhanced phase.

Cross-lagged analyses identified a significant longitudinal association between agentic engagement at Week 1 and metacognitive self-regulation at Week 6 (\u03b2 = 0.187,\n                      <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\n                      = 0.005), whereas the indirect effect on academic achievement was not significant (\u03b2 = 0.002, 95% BC CI [\u22120.028, 0.035]).\n                    <\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Discussion<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>The findings describe distinct longitudinal trajectories of engagement and SRL across sequential instructional phases and support a developmental interpretation in which standard flipped instruction and progressively scaffolded AI integration may play distinct roles in supporting student engagement and SRL.
