Abstract

The incorporation of artificial intelligence (AI) into higher education is a major advance capable of transforming learning methods and supporting students' psychological well-being. This systematic review examines the influence of AI on academic performance and student well-being, analysing 38 studies published between 2018 and 2024. education chatbots, adaptive learning platforms, and intelligent tutoring systems are all examples of AI technologies, improve the personalisation of learning, increasing understanding, engagement and academic outcomes, while reducing stress and anxiety. However, concerns remain about technological dependency, social isolation and ethical challenges. The results indicate that AI must be used in a balanced and ethical manner, with adequate training of educators and appropriate policies. Future research should further investigate the impact of AI in various educational contexts
