Abstract: The development of educational research instruments is critical to the quality, credibility, and interpretability of research findings. However, many researchers continue to face challenges in constructing instruments that are both theoretically grounded and methodologically sound. At the same time, recent advances in Generative Artificial Intelligence (GenAI), particularly tools based on Large Language Models (LLMs) and Natural Language Processing (NLP), have created new opportunities to support construct definition, indicator specification, preliminary item drafting, and early-stage language review. Nevertheless, the application of these technologies to educational research instrument development still lacks a clearly articulated methodological framework grounded in educational measurement and evaluation principles.This conceptual paper proposes a methodological framework for applying Generative Artificial Intelligence to educational research instrument development. The framework integrates four core components: educational measurement and evaluation foundations, instrument development processes, the role of Artificial Intelligence as a methodological support mechanism, and Human-in-the-Loop decision-making. Within this framework, AI is positioned as a methodological assistant rather than a substitute for scholarly judgment. It may support construct clarification, indicator development, preliminary item generation, and early-stage quality review, while responsibility for decisions concerning validity, reliability, measurement precision, measurement fairness, and ethical appropriateness remains with researchers and domain experts.The proposed framework offers a structured, transparent, and theoretically grounded approach to integrating AI into instrument development. It further emphasizes that the academic value of AI-assisted instrument development depends not merely on procedural efficiency, but on its alignment with sound measurement and evaluation principles and responsible human oversight. This paper thus provides a preliminary methodological contribution for educational researchers, research instructors, and graduate students, while also offering a foundation for future empirical validation of AI-assisted instrument development practices in education.
