To conceptualize user competence in artificial intelligence and develop a reliable, valid quantitative instrument to measure AI literacy among general users.
Identified four foundational constructs of AI literacy (awareness, use, evaluation, and ethics) and created an initial pool of 65 survey items.
Refined the instrument to 31 items through a three-step content validation procedure, followed by survey administration across two independent user samples.
Conducted item reduction via factor analysis on the first sample and executed reliability and construct validation analyses on the second sample to produce a 12-item scale.
Confirmed that the proposed four-construct structural model provides a robust psychometric representation of user AI literacy within the finalized 12-item questionnaire.
Demonstrated significant positive associations between AI literacy scores, general digital literacy, user attitudes toward robots, and daily AI usage frequency.
