GenAI clinical care modified deplhi

he purpose of this study is to explore how healthcare professionals, including doctors, psychologists, and nurses, are using new technologies called Generative AI in their daily work. Generative AI tools, such as systems that help write clinical notes or summarize conversations, have the potential to save time and make tasks easier for healthcare providers. This study will ask participants to share their experiences with these tools, including what they find helpful, any challenges they've faced, and suggestions for improvement. By gathering this information, we hope to better understand how these tools are currently being used and how they can be improved to help healthcare professionals provide better care to their patients. The results of this study will be used to guide future improvements to Generative AI tools and offer practical advice for clinicians who are considering using these technologies in their own practices.

    Psychological Wellbeing among Black-Biracial College Students

    Biracial and multiracial families are one of the fastest growing populations in the United States. Understanding identity development among this population is critical to understanding well-being and adjustment. Examining parents' individual and collective influence on this process is important, as they are the primary agents of socialization. This retrospective study examines linkages between parental factors (mother and father) and the identity of Biracial (White; Black) young adults. Additionally, this investigation explores the association between biracial identity and wellbeing. The sample will consist of self-identified Black-Biracial college students (N = 150). A web-based survey will be used to recruit and administer surveys to college students. Participants will complete on anonymous web-based survey lasting approximately 20 minutes.
