Abstract
This qualitative study investigates researchers' perceptions of ChatGPT's influence on research creativity, efficiency, and scholarly integrity. A cross-sectional survey with six open-ended questions was administered to 112 participants across academic levels (2 post-doctoral, 20 PhD, 26 Master's, 64 diploma holders) within education and psychology. Data was analyzed using triangulated methods: SWOT analysis, thematic analysis, and systematic open coding. Findings indicate ChatGPT is perceived as a dual-edged tool that enhances productivity while posing cognitive and ethical risks. Ethical considerations are central, with participants emphasizing the need for structured guidelines. The human factor remains decisive—AI's benefits depend on researchers' methodological awareness and ethical engagement. Results suggest AI functions optimally as a cognitive scaffold, with its impact contingent upon use patterns and user experience. The findings carry implications for developing evidence-based policies and training for responsible AI integration in academic research.
The research obtained 55 open-ended survey responses from students and indicated that students generally perceive ChatGPT as a supportive learning tool when used responsibly, while also expressing concerns regarding dependency and unclear institutional guidance.
