AI / system type
Mixed healthcare AI scenarios / youth values study
Child-facing evidenceExamines children or child-focused systems. Transfer to everyday family life must be assessed separately.
The AI connection
Interviews used scenarios concerning AI health-data research, AI clinical trials and point-of-care AI.
Why this reading matters
Provides direct youth evidence for participatory governance rather than substituting adult assumptions about what children want.
Editorial reading guide · Respect
How do young people want to participate when AI uses their health information?
Young participants described strong preferences about their data and involvement in AI decisions. The study makes respect for minors’ views visible even when adults retain formal authority.
Study context
Twenty-eight participants with pediatric hospital or rehabilitation experience
Age / stage: Children and youths aged 10–17 years
Read with three questions
- What did participants value in health-data research, trials and bedside AI?
- How did they describe maintaining the human clinical relationship?
- Which young people were less likely to be represented by the recruitment and language criteria?
Keep the limits in view
The English-language, hospital-based sample was selected and small. Vignette interviews capture values and expectations, not population prevalence or outcomes of an implemented AI service.
