Editorial reading guide · Respect
Which concerns should an AI service address before asking a parent to accept it?
The study identifies multiple concerns parents consider important, including privacy, shared decisions, social justice and the human element of care.

Age / stage: Parents of children under 18 years
Read with three questions
- What dimensions emerged in the openness and concern measures?
- How were the measures developed and checked?
- Why does a validated attitudes measure not validate an AI technology?
Keep the limits in view
The cross-sectional survey measures openness and perceived concerns, not actual adoption or clinical benefit. Sampling and hypothetical technology descriptions may shape responses.
