BackgroundAs artificial intelligence (AI) becomes increasingly integrated into the workplace, an important question concerns how employees respond when technological change is perceived as threatening rather than beneficial. Prior studies have examined several mechanisms linking AI awareness to employee attitudes and behaviors, but these mechanisms are often studied separately, limiting understanding of the broader psychological process underlying adverse employee reactions.ObjectiveThis study examines the media…
The problem
A meta-analysis of 45 studies with 16,140 participants found that greater awareness of AI at work was positively linked to job insecurity and counterproductive work behavior, including a substantial direct effect on that behavior.

How to check it yourself, without trusting this page
Download any version from /api/record/TRV-2026-2703 and hash its canonical field yourself, for example with shasum -a 256. You should get its content_hash. Each version’s text also ends with prev:and the hash of the version before it (version 1 points to 64 zeros). If anyone had changed a single character of any version after it was saved, those hashes wouldn’t line up.
