Two independent 2025 Paraguayan surveys — 108 students at UNIDA and 294 of INAES's 1,238 enrolled students — found frequent ChatGPT use alongside majority concern over technological dependence, critical-thinking loss and plagiarism risk.
In 2025, two Paraguayan academic teams independently surveyed university students on generative-AI use and its risks to academic integrity, with no coordination between them. At Universidad de la Integración de las Américas (UNIDA), Soledad Cardozo surveyed 108 students from public and private universities using a convenience/snowball sample (April–June 2025), published in Revista Científica en Ciencias Sociales (October 2025, DOI 10.53732/rccsociales/e701123).
Separately, at the Instituto Nacional de Educación Superior Dr. Raúl Peña (INAES) in Asunción, Néstor Rolando Rotela Villalba surveyed 294 of the institute's 1,238 enrolled undergraduates in 2025, published in the institute's own journal, Kuaapy Ayvu.
The UNIDA survey found 59.3% of respondents used ChatGPT frequently and 52% used AI "always" or "almost always" in academic activities, yet also found high self-reported concern: 70% worried about technological dependence, 69.4% about loss of critical thinking, and 62.9% about plagiarism risk; 88% were unaware of AI tools beyond ChatGPT. The INAES survey similarly found a mostly positive view of ChatGPT as academic support, but flagged the need to strengthen pedagogical integration to avoid technological dependence and to promote ethical, reflective use.
Both are single-round, self-reported, cross-sectional surveys with no shared instrument, no control group and no measured learning outcomes; neither university had adopted an AI-use policy at the time of publication.
