Opportunity to Participate in a Research Study on AI and Mental Health
Our research team is conducting a study on how digital tools can help people reflect on their mental health conversations with AI chatbots.
We are looking for participants who have used ChatGPT, Gemini, or another AI chatbot for mental health support and are fluent in English. Participation will use our tool in one 60-minute zoom interview. Upon completion, participants will receive a $20 Amazon gift card.
