AI chatbots for health: Benefits, risks, and self-disclosure study

By PulseAugur Editorial · [2 sources] ·

A study involving 1,388 Dutch participants explored the use of AI chatbots for health-related inquiries. The research found that perceived benefits positively influenced users' intentions to use chatbots and their willingness to self-disclose sensitive health information, while perceived risks had a negative association. Participants showed higher intentions for low-sensitive topics compared to high-sensitive ones, though individual characteristics also played a role in these perceptions and intentions. AI
