Effect of AI empathy perception on employees' prosocial behavior: mediating role of warmth and moderating role of AI anthropomorphism.
Article in Frontiers in psychology, 2025. 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
With the rapid advancement of AI technology, an increasing number of organizations are introducing AI as formal employees in the workplace. By conducting hypothesis testing on 400 sample data from eight highly digitalized companies in China, the findings show that the perception of AI empathy can enhance employees' prosocial behavior, with warmth serving as a mediating factor. Furthermore, AI anthropomorphism moderates the effect of AI empathy perception on employees' prosocial behavior through warmth: the higher the degree of AI anthropomorphism, the greater the positive impact of AI empathy perception on warmth, which in turn positively moderates the effect of AI empathy perception on human employees' prosocial behavior. This paper constructs a pathway of "technological environment-emotional cognition-behavioral activation," expanding the research perspective on behavior and emotional cognition within the domain of human-computer interaction. It elevates AI's emotional interaction to the level of organizational behavior management, promoting a shift from human-machine collaboration to human-to-human collaboration.
