The influence of generative artificial intelligence usage on employees' innovative job performance.
Article in PloS one, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
The rapid advancement of AI technology has accelerated the adoption of generative artificial intelligence (GenAI) tools in the workplace, eroding the boundaries between professional responsibilities and personal space, thus impacting employees' innovative performance. This study empirically examines the link between innovative job performance and GenAI tool usage, framed through the Uses and Gratifications Theory. Analyzing survey data from 366 employees nationwide revealed that: (1) both cognitive and social uses of GenAI tools significantly enhance innovative performance; (2) cognitive use primarily facilitates knowledge transfer behaviors, while social use bolsters resource acquisition. Enhanced knowledge transfer and resource acquisition, in turn, improve job satisfaction, which is pivotal in driving innovative performance. This study introduces a novel framework for utilizing GenAI tools to optimize and manage employee performance within organizational settings.
