A graded user competence in evaluating the origin, evidential basis, and reliability of AI-generated knowledge and placing it appropriately, distinguishing well-sourced claims from unsupported ones.
Rated on a source-critical reasoning rubric: the user is scored on whether they question provenance, request or check sources, and calibrate confidence to evidence quality across a set of AI responses.
Proposed measurement protocol (not yet empirically validated): Rubric scoring by trained raters on a 0-4 source-criticality scale across fixed probe items; agreement could be reported as the intraclass correlation (ICC) for averaged ratings.
