While some studies find that people prefer humans over AI (AI aversion), others find the opposite (AI appreciation). To reconcile these conflicting findings, we introduce the Capability-Personalization Framework. This theoretical framework posits that when deciding between AI and humans in a context, individuals focus on two dimensions: (a) perceived capability of AI and (b) perceived necessity for personalization. We propose that AI appreciation occurs when (a) AI is perceived as more capable than humans and (b) personalization is perceived as unnecessary in a given decision context, whereas AI aversion occurs when these conditions are not met. Our Capability-Personalization Framework is substantiated by a meta-analysis of 442 effect sizes from 163 studies (N = 82,078): AI appreciation occurs (d = 0.27, 95% CI [0.17, 0.37]) when AI is perceived as more capable than humans and personalization is perceived as unnecessary in a given decision context; otherwise, AI aversion occurs (d = -0.50, 95% CI [-0.63, -0.37]). Moderation analyses suggest that AI appreciation is more pronounced for tangible robots (vs. intangible algorithms), for attitudinal (vs. behavioral) outcomes, in between-subjects (vs. within-subjects) study designs, and in low unemployment countries, while AI aversion is more pronounced in countries with high levels of education and internet use. Overall, our integrative framework and meta-analysis advance knowledge about AI-human preferences and offer valuable implications for AI developers and users.

Parents report fears that screens cause socioemotional problems. But most research has been cross-sectional, making it difficult to establish causality. We reviewed the longitudinal evidence to answer two fundamental questions: Does screen use lead to socioemotional problems, and do socioemotional problems lead children to use screens more often? A total of 132 longitudinal studies met the inclusion criteria and were included in the systematic review. From these, 117 studies (292,739 children; 2,284 effects) were meta-analyzed. Small significant associations were found in both directions: Screen use led to socioemotional problems, b = 0.06, 95% confidence interval (CI) [0.02, 0.11], p ≤ 0.05, n = 200,018, K = 117, and socioemotional problems led to greater screen use (b = 0.06, 95% CI [0.01, 0.12], p = .01, n = 200,018, K = 117). Moderation analyses showed stronger effects in both directions when screens were used for gaming than for other purposes: Socioemotional problems led to more gaming behavior (b = 0.44, 95% CI [0.29, 0.60], n = 80,809, K = 31), and playing games led to later socioemotional problems (b = 0.32, 95% CI [0.23, 0.42], n = 80,809, K = 31). The reciprocal relationship between socioemotional problems and screen use was moderated by children's age, total screen time at baseline, and type of socioemotional problem (i.e., externalizing and internalizing behavior). Compared with prior cross-sectional studies, our temporal evidence reinforces the benefits of screen time guidelines but suggests a change in focus. Instead of merely emphasizing the reduction of screen time, guidelines should prioritize improving the quality of screen content and enhancing social interactions during screen use. Additionally, screen time guidelines should discourage high levels of the most high-risk behaviors like gaming.

Some disorders, like schizophrenia, have been associated with increased rates of atypical hand preference (i.e., non-right-, left-, or mixed-hand preference)-but others, like depression, have not. To identify overarching patterns between hand preference and psychopathology and estimate the influence of potential moderators independent of diagnosis, we need to leverage rich information in the databases of these meta-analyses and conduct a higher level of analysis of meta-analytic data across diagnoses. To this end, we performed a second-order meta-analysis after reviewing, updating, and reanalyzing previously published meta-analyses on hand preference in various mental and neurodevelopmental disorders. In total, this study includes 402 data sets totaling 202,434 individuals. On average, atypical hand preference had a significantly higher frequency in cases compared to controls (nonright odds ratio [OR]: 1.46, 95% CI [1.35, 1.59]; left OR: 1.34, 95% CI [1.22, 1.48]; mixed OR: 1.63, 95% CI [1.38, 1.93]). Further analyses indicated that case-control differences varied with diagnosis. Some diagnoses, like schizophrenia, are associated with a high frequency of atypical hand preference (nonright OR: 1.50, 95% CI [1.32, 1.70]; left OR: 1.37, 95% CI [1.17, 1.61]; mixed OR: 1.70, 95% CI [1.19, 2.44]). Moderator analyses showed that neurodevelopmental conditions, nonneurodevelopmental conditions with an early age of onset, and conditions that include symptoms related to language were all associated with higher rates of atypical hand preference. This finding suggests that the association between handedness and clinical conditions is best understood from a transdiagnostic, developmental, and symptom-focused perspective.

A long-standing debate concerns the influence of cognitive processing on moral judgments in such dilemmas. One popular dual process account suggests that intuition favors \"deontological\" judgments, whereas \"utilitarian\" judgments require more reflection. We conducted a comprehensive multilevel, multivariate meta-analysis to assess the cumulative evidence favoring intuitive deontology, its heterogeneity within and across studies, and its robustness to bias. Following established standards, our search for published and gray literature identified 731 unique effects nested in 139 studies from 80 reports meeting our eligibility criteria. Overall, we found a significant but small effect favoring intuitive deontology (OR = 1.18, 95% CI [1.10, 1.26]; p < .0001). We also observed substantial effect heterogeneity stemming from differences within and between studies. Results were robust to outliers, and we found no consistent indications of publication bias. Our preregistered exploration of various moderators resulted in significant explanation of the residual variance by manipulation and dilemma type, with the highest effects of intuitive deontology found for studies using foreign language or induction manipulations and the footbridge dilemma. In a post hoc analysis, restricting the data set to dilemma actions requiring personal force and instrumentality, we found an increased effect of intuitive deontology (OR = 1.30, 95% CI [1.19, 1.42]). Results question the universality of intuitive deontology, inform current discussions on the effect's underlying mechanisms, and call for more carefully designed studies testing the effect.

Although numerous qualitative studies have reported the effects of invalidation on patients' psychological and behavioral outcomes, this body of research has not been systematically reviewed. Informed by Linehan's (1993) conceptualization of invalidation, this systematic review elucidated the negative consequences, of symptom invalidation, or the dismissal or minimization of a person's experiences with illness. We reviewed 151 qualitative reports representing 11,307 individuals with Ehlers-Danlos syndrome, endometriosis, fibromyalgia syndrome, Gulf War syndrome, irritable bowel syndrome, long COVID, multiple chemical sensitivity, myalgic encephalomyelitis/chronic fatigue syndrome, postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome, systemic lupus erythematosus, and vulvodynia. Consistent with Linehan's theorizing, thematic analysis identified four broad classes of consequences: induced emotional states and beliefs (e.g., shame, suicidality), induced health care emotional states and beliefs (e.g., health care-related anxiety and trauma), induced health care behavior (e.g., health care system avoidance), and diagnostic delay. Informed by these findings, we developed a novel conceptual model explaining how symptom invalidation leads to these consequences and thereby undermines health outcomes. Future work should explore the proposed conceptual model and identify theoretically informed interventions and policies aimed at preventing symptom invalidation to improve psychological, behavioral, and health outcomes.
