Me, my work and AI: How radiologists craft their work and identity
通过对54名放射科及相关人员的深度访谈,研究揭示了放射科医生在人工智能引入后如何通过趋近、回避和身份重塑三种工作塑造行为来应对变化,对理解技术变革下的职业身份调整有参考价值。
This study investigates the introduction of AI in the field of radiology through a multi-level analysis (individuals, organization, and profession). Drawing on in-depth interviews with 54 participants (radiologists, radiological technologists, managers, hospital directors, and engineers), we examined how radiologists perceive AI and respond through job crafting behaviors and identity work. The findings reveal three categories of job crafting: approach, avoidance, and an emerging category of identity crafting, in which actors develop strategies to redefine their identity after the introduction of AI. This study contributes to a better understanding of AI and its implications for individuals at work and, in particular, employees' use of proactive approaches to job design, along with how such approaches are shaped by organizations and professional bodies. • Examining the transformative effects of AI on radiologists' job and identity • Investigating how radiologists perceive AI as a threat and opportunity, with a particular focus on work identity • Investigating how radiologists job craft in response to AI interventions • Providing insights into how radiologists shape their roles amidst technological advancements.
