Article Abstract
Artificial intelligence (AI) assistants are increasingly deployed across various fields to replace human operators in providing feedback to users, making anthropomorphism a pivotal topic in AI-assisted interactions. We investigated the impact of varying degrees of anthropomorphism in verbal feedback on task performance and user experience. A total of 30 participants were recruited, and their task performance and subjective experiences in response to different levels of feedback were measured. Moderate-level anthropomorphic verbal feedback elicited significantly lower self-efficacy and pleasure compared to high- and low- level feedback. Notably, under high-level feedback, participants demonstrated a significant increase in response speed compared to lower levels. These findings suggested that high-level feedback of AI assistants could enhance participants' performance and experience, thereby improving training or learning efficacy. However, moderate-level anthropomorphic feedback appeared to be less effective. The study outcomes could offer insights for future research and design of AI voice systems.

A carbohydrate placebo (CHO-PLA) is a non-metabolic substance guised as carbohydrate. When information about the treatment was not disclosed, CHO-PLA enhanced strength performance through the sweetness cue, which psychologically strengthened participants' belief in its efficacy. However, the effects of CHO-PLA when participants are misinformed that they are consuming actual carbohydrates, and the role of additional cues (visual reinforcement), remain less understood.

Objectives: Pain assessment is challenging given its subjective nature, and existing assessment tools have limitations, especially for patients having problems with verbal communication. A prior study evaluated the Grasp, a handheld device for assessing pain intensity through squeezing, showing a moderate association with the numeric rating scale (NRS). This study examined an improved version of the Grasp with instant visual feedback through color-coded categories and compared it to NRS.

Limited data exist on the implementation of current fetal cardiology training and practice guidelines, how trainees are assessed, and how trained fetal cardiologists maintain their skills among countries affiliated with the Association of European Paediatric and Congenital Cardiology (AEPC). A structured questionnaire was sent to fetal cardiologists or national delegates from 44 centers in 33 European countries. Responses were obtained from 37 centers in 29 European countries with 31 responses from fetal cardiologists.
