Brief Summary:
The goal of this randomized controlled lab experiment is to examine if using generated artificial intelligence AI technology will affect peoples academic performance and cognitive abilities in the context of analytical writing among college students The main questions it aims to answer are
1 Does using the technology affect students writing performance
2 Does using the technology affect students cognitive effort during the writing process
Participants will be randomly assigned to either a control group which is writing without AI assistance or an experimental group which is writing with the assistance of ChatGPT Researchers will compare the two groups to see if ChatGPT affects students writing performance and cognitive effort
For each participant the lab experiment will last for no more than 15 hours An eye-tracker will monitor the participants gaze activities and pupil size A functional near-infrared spectroscopy fNIRS will monitor the participants brain activities in the frontal lobe During the experiment participants will be asked to
1 Read learning materials on analytical writing techniques
2 Based on the previously provided materials complete an analytical writing assignment that will take approximately 30 minutes either with or without the aid of ChatGPT
3 Answer survey questions about their experience with the writing assignment attitudes on using ChatGPT and demographic backgrounds
