A Study on the Impact of AI Tool Use on Project Team Collaboration

You are invited to participate in a master's thesis study on the impact of AI tool use on project team collaboration!

Please evaluate a project team you worked in during the past year. If you participated in several projects, choose one and evaluate the same team throughout. AI tools include, for example, ChatGPT, Copilot, Gemini, or other systems with AI features.

The questionnaire takes 5–8 minutes to complete.

Thank you for contributing to this study!

Questionnaire prepared by: Deividas Pundzius

The questionnaire data will be used for a KTU master's thesis in 2026–2027.

The data you provide will remain confidential and anonymous; survey results will be presented in aggregate.

Results are available only to the author
