This study examines the impact of an educational program based on artificial
intelligence (AI) on improving social intelligence among Oralman students
(a group of repatriates from among ethnic Kazakhs who faced unique
integration problems in Kazakhstan). The main objective was to assess
whether targeted interventions can effectively improve social skills that are
crucial for successful social integration. The study involved 300 students
aged 20 to 22 years, divided into experimental and control groups. Students
participated in a six-month AI program designed to develop social
intelligence using interactive tools and modeling. Pre-test and post-test
assessments used the Tromso social intelligence scale (TSIS), focusing on
areas such as social information processing, social skills, and social
awareness. Following the intervention, the outcomes revealed that the
experimental group had made notable progress in every area that was
examined. Specifically, in this group, the overall score increased
significantly from 59.37 to 82.33, and the average post-test scores climbed to
25.87 for social information processing, 27.33 for social skills, and 29.13 for
social awareness. On the contrary, minimal changes observed in the scores
of the control group emphasize the effectiveness of the AI-based program.
The analysis of secondary data further confirmed the results: t-tests showed
statistically significant differences in the post-test scores between the groups.
The progress of the experimental group highlights the potential of AI-based
educational tools in the development of basic social competencies, offering
promising opportunities to support the integration of Oralman students into
Kazakh society.
