开发量表识别生成式AI成瘾,发现其与网络游戏障碍的脆弱型特征相似。

Emotionally Vulnerable Subtype of Internet Gaming Disorder: Measuring and Exploring the Pathology of Problematic Generative AI Use

  • 基于网络游戏障碍框架,构建9项量表评估生成式AI问题使用
  • 中美样本显示10%人群存在问题使用,症状网络结构类似游戏成瘾
  • 适合关注数字成瘾心理机制的研究者和心理健康从业者

针对生成式人工智能(GenAI)使用可能被过度病理化的担忧及成瘾概念模糊的问题,本研究开发并验证了PUGenAIS-9量表。在来自中国和美国的总计1,508名参与者中,通过验证性因子分析确定了九个基于IGD维度的31项结构,并从中选取各维度最高载荷项形成9项量表。在独立样本(N=1,426)中验证其结构效度,跨国家与性别测量不变性测试确认其稳定性。采用个体中心(潜在类别分析)与变量中心(网络分析)方法发现,问题使用在人群中占比5%-10%,症状网络结构与IGD高度相似,且与心理困扰和功能损害相关。结果表明,问题化生成式AI使用更符合情绪脆弱型IGD特征,而非能力主导型。研究支持使用PUGenAIS-9识别问题使用,并提出需以ICD(基础设施、内容、设备)模型重新思考数字成瘾,确保研究响应新媒体发展的同时避免过度病理化。

原文摘要 · Abstract (English)

Concerns over the potential over-pathologization of generative AI (GenAI) use and the lack of conceptual clarity surrounding GenAI addiction call for empirical tools and theoretical refinement. This study developed and validated the PUGenAIS-9 (Problematic Use of Generative Artificial Intelligence Scale-9 items) and examined whether PUGenAIS reflects addiction-like patterns under the Internet Gaming Disorder (IGD) framework. Using samples from China and the United States (N = 1,508), we conducted confirmatory factor analysis and identified a robust 31-item structure across nine IGD-based dimensions. We then derived the PUGenAIS-9 by selecting the highest-loading items from each dimension and validated its structure in an independent sample (N = 1,426). Measurement invariance tests confirmed its stability across nationality and gender. Person-centered (latent profile analysis) and variable-centered (network analysis) approaches revealed a 5-10% prevalence rate, a symptom network structure similar to IGD, and predictive factors related to psychological distress and functional impairment. These findings indicate that PUGenAI shares features of the emotionally vulnerable subtype of IGD rather than the competence-based type. These results support using PUGenAIS-9 to identify problematic GenAI use and show the need to rethink digital addiction with an ICD (infrastructures, content, and device) model. This keeps addiction research responsive to new media while avoiding over-pathologizing.
