The Digital Instructor Paradox: Impact of Realistic AI- Generated Avatars on Cognitive Load and Learning Performance

2026-05-19

Abstract excerpt

<title>Abstract</title> <p>Rapid advancements in Generative AI enable the synthesis of photorealistic pedagogical agents, yet their impact on human information processing remains debated. While Social Agency Theory predicts benefits from social priming, Cognitive Load Theory warns of deleterious split-attention effects when visual cues are redundant. This dual-study investigation disentangles the effects of avata...
