Abstract

Perfectionism is a transdiagnostic process associated with a range of psychological disorders. Cognitive Behaviour Therapy for Perfectionism (CBT-P) has been demonstrated as efficacious across guided and unguided internet delivered interventions in reducing perfectionism and psychopathology. The aim of this pilot study was to understand perceptions and acceptability of an artificial intelligence supplemented CBT-P intervention (AI-CBT-P) in young people with lived experience of anxiety and depression (n = 8; age range 19–29 years, M = 24 years, SD = 3.77; 50 % female, 38 % male, 12 % non-binary). Young people reported that they were frequent users of artificial intelligence for study, work and general information, were positive about the intervention and using artificial intelligence for guidance in a self-help intervention, but also noted several concerns. Young people perceived numerous benefits to AI-CBT-P, including ease of access, low cost, lack of stigma and benefits for individuals with social anxiety. Overall, young people appear to be interested in, and have a positive view of, AI-CBT-P. Further research is now required to examine the feasibility and acceptability of the intervention.

关于在互联网认知行为疗法中使用人工智能指导青少年完美主义的看法和可接受性的试点研究

完美主义是一种与一系列心理障碍相关的跨诊断过程。针对完美主义的认知行为疗法（CBT-P）在减少完美主义和心理病理学方面的疗效已在有指导和无指导的互联网干预中得到证实。这项试点研究旨在了解有焦虑和抑郁生活经历的年轻人（n = 8；年龄范围为 19-29 岁，M = 24 岁，SD = 3.77；50% 为女性，38% 为男性，12% 为非二元）对人工智能辅助 CBT-P 干预（AI-CBT-P）的看法和可接受性。年轻人表示，他们经常使用人工智能来学习、工作和获取一般信息，对人工智能干预和在自助干预中使用人工智能进行指导持积极态度，但也指出了一些顾虑。年轻人认为人工智能-CBT-P 有许多好处，包括使用方便、成本低、没有耻辱感以及对社交焦虑症患者有益。总的来说，年轻人似乎对 AI-CBT-P 很感兴趣，并持有积极的看法。现在还需要进一步的研究，以考察干预措施的可行性和可接受性。
