  1. DV = dependent variable, SD = standard deviation, CI = confidence interval, Cohen’s d is the standardized effect size. Comparisons were conducted between participants who worked solo in Task 1 (i.e., the Solo-Solo and Solo-Collab conditions) and participants who collaborated with AI in Task 1 (i.e., the Collab-Solo and Collab-Collab conditions). T-tests were used to evaluate mean differences for each dependent variable. Significant results are bolded for emphasis.
