В современном контексте, особенно в связи с развитием и активным внедрением больших языковых моделей (БЯМ) в социальные практики, феномен антропоморфизма приобретает особое прагматическое значение. Образование сегодня является одной из сфер, где внедрение БЯМ происходит наиболее активно. Данное исследование направлено на рассмотрение феномена антропоморфизма в восприятии студентами чат-ботов в контексте теории вежливости.Материалы и методы. Использована адаптированная версия опросника Godspeed с измерением антропоморфизма, одушевленности и воспринимаемой разумности. Коммуникативные стратегии чат-ботов сконструированы на основе теории вежливости П. Браун и С. Левинсона. В эксперименте приняли участие 543 студента (возраст 17–20 лет) из трех российских вузов. Специально для эксперименты были разработаны три чат-бота: Номи (ликосохраняющий), Вектор (ликоугрожающий) и Серо (нейтральный). Испытания проводились в трех коммуникативных фреймах: объяснение, обратная связь и рекомендация; каждое взаимодействие студента с чат-ботом длилось не более 10 мин.Результаты исследования. Вектор получил наивысшую среднюю оценку антропоморфизма (M = 3,123) по сравнению с Серо (M = 2,598) и Номи (M = 2,924). Обнаружено, что восприятие чат-ботов расслаивается: у Вектора высокое ощущение человекоподобности сочетается с более низкими показателями одушевленности и разумности. Показно, что фрейм обратной связи усиливает антропоморфизацию чат-ботов, тогда как рекомендации — нет. Значимой корреляций с опытом использования ИИ не обнаружено.Обсуждение и заключение. Антропоморфизм является многомерным и контекстуально зависимым феноменом. Активное использование технологий ИИ в повседневной жизни приводит к частичной диссоциации ранее тесно связанных концептов: человекоподобия, одушевленности и воспринимаемой рациональности, а также трансформации некоторых фреймов социального взаимодействия, в которые активно встраиваются цифровые партнеры.</p></abstract><trans-abstract xml:lang="en"><p>Introduction. The phenomenon of anthropomorphism acquires particular pragmatic significance in the modern context, especially in connection with the development and active implementation of Large Language Models (LLMs) in social practices. Today education is one of the areas where LMMs are being implemented most actively. This study aims to examine the phenomenon of anthropomorphism in students’ perception of chatbots in the context of politeness theory.Materials and Methods. An adapted version of the Godspeed Questionnaire Series was used to measure anthropomorphism, animism, and perceived intelligence. The communication strategies of chatbots were designed based on P. Brown and S. Levinson’s Politeness theory. The experiment involved 543 students (aged 17–20) from three Russian universities. Three chatbots were developed specifically for the experiment: Nomi (face-saving), Vector (face-threatening), and Sero (neutral). The tests were conducted in three communication frames: explanation, feedback, and recommendation; each interaction between a student and a chatbot lasted no more than 10 minutes.Results. Vector received the highest average anthropomorphism score (M = 3.123) compared to Sero (M = 2.598) and Nomi (M = 2.924). It was found that the perception of chatbots is stratified: Vector has a high sense of human-likeness combined with lower scores for animacy and intelligence. It is noteworthy that the feedback frame enhances the anthropomorphization of chatbots, while recommendations do not. No significant correlations were found with AI usage experience.Discussion and Conclusion. Anthropomorphism is a multidimensional and context-dependent phenomenon. The active use of AI technologies in everyday life leads to a partial dissociation of previously closely related concepts: human likeness, animation, and perceived rationality, as well as the transformation of some social interaction frames where digital partners actively integrate.</p></trans-abstract><kwd-group xml:lang="ru"><kwd>образование</kwd><kwd>искусственный интеллект</kwd><kwd>LLM чат-боты</kwd><kwd>антропоморфизм</kwd><kwd>теория вежливости</kwd><kwd>позитивное лицо</kwd><kwd>негативное лицо</kwd><kwd>ликоугрожающие акты</kwd></kwd-group><kwd-group xml:lang="en"><kwd>education</kwd><kwd>artificial intelligence</kwd><kwd>LLM chatbots</kwd><kwd>anthropomorphism</kwd><kwd>politeness theory</kwd><kwd>positive face</kwd><kwd>negative face</kwd><kwd>face-threatening acts</kwd></kwd-group><funding-group><funding-statement xml:lang="ru">Авторы выражают признательность Министерству науки и высшего образования Российской Федерации за поддержку данного исследования в рамках соглашения № 075−03−2025−662 (от 17 января 2025 г.), связанного с проектом FSMG−2025−0086 «Прикладные исследования по внедрению технологий искусственного интеллекта в высшее образование».</funding-statement><funding-statement xml:lang="en">The authors acknowledge the support of this research by the Ministry of Education and Science of the Russian Federation under Agreement No. 075−03−2025−662 (January 17, 2025), associated with project FSMG−2025−0086, “Applied Research on the Implementation of Artificial Intelligence Technologies in Higher Education”.</funding-statement></funding-group></article-meta></front><back><ref-list><title>References</title><ref id="cit1"><label>1</label><citation-alternatives><mixed-citation xml:lang="ru">Bartneck C., Croft E., Kulic D. et al.
