Abstract

The study looked at how trust in Artificial Intelligence (AI) and collaboration with AI impact task performance, creative performance, and overall well-being. By analyzing data from 553 Chinese school principals using multigroup structural equation modeling and mediation analysis, the study found that trust in AI has a significant impact on task performance, creative performance, and overall well-being, especially for novice and mid-career principals. Additionally, the study revealed that AI collaboration plays a mediating role in the relationship between trust in AI and task performance, creative performance, and well-being across all career stages, highlighting the importance of fostering AI collaboration in educational settings.
