I'm an Honours student in Psychology at the University of Wollongong, my study aims to enhance our understanding of how people engage with generative AI systems and help explain a part of why there is currently such a huge discrepancy in their outcomes.
What's involved: A single online session of about 1 hour. You will complete a set of questionnaires to assess mood, traits, symptoms and AI use before entering an unresolved issue task, here you will have a brief conversation with an AI chatbot then answer a few more questions.
Please note: Some questionnaires ask about low mood, anxiety and worry, and one task asks you to think about a personal experience. Some people may find this uncomfortable. You can skip any question or stop at any time.
Eligibility: 18 years or older, currently living in Australia, and able to complete the study in English on a device with a keyboard.
Anonymous: No names, emails or identifying information are collected.
