AI assessment changes human behavior
J. Goergen, E. D. Bellis, et al.
AI is replacing human decision-makers in assessments. Research conducted by Jonas Goergen, Emanuel de Bellis, and Anne-Kathrin Klesse shows people alter their self-presentation under AI (vs. human) assessment—emphasizing analytical traits and downplaying intuition and emotion. Across twelve studies (N = 13,342), they document the “AI assessment effect” and trace it to the belief that AI prioritizes analytical characteristics, with implications for psychology and organizations using AI assessment.
