The study finds that 34% of research participants use generative AI tools like large language models (LLMs) to assist with open-ended survey responses, leading to more homogeneity and positivity in their answers, which could impact data validity by masking social variations.
Methods: The study conducted an original survey on a popular online platform and simulated comparisons between human-written responses from pre-ChatGPT studies and LLM-generated responses.
Key Findings: Use of LLMs by survey participants, differences in text homogeneity, positivity, and masking of social variation in open-ended survey responses.
