What this study is about
We study how working with agentic AI coding assistants relates to software developers' wellbeing. You will work on a real task of your own using your usual AI setup (~30 minutes), and take part in a retrospective interview with the researcher.
🎥
Recording and data
The session (screen, webcam, and audio) is recorded for research purposes only.
Your data are pseudonymized (you are identified by a participant code) and stored securely by the research team.
Quotes may appear in scientific publications in anonymized form.
🛡️
Your rights
Participation is voluntary. You may stop at any time, without giving a reason.
You may skip any question and ask for specific moments to be removed from the record.
You can request deletion of your data by contacting the research team.
Research team: Riccardo Graziosi, Alberto Monge Roffarello (Politecnico di Torino), Tommaso Calò (IT University of Copenhagen). This confirmation complements the consent form you received in advance.
Thank you! All set.
The researcher is starting the coding session — one moment.
When the timer appears, switch to your IDE and work as you normally would. Keep this tab open.
