Bibliografia generata da ChatGPT sui cambiamenti neurofisiologici nella corteccia prefrontale legati all’uso prolungato di dispositivi di lettura digitale tra i giovani adulti (in inglese).
Di seguito è riportata una bibliografia di riferimento generata da ChatGPT o3, incentrata sui cambiamenti neurofisiologici nella corteccia prefrontale correlati all’uso prolungato di dispositivi di lettura digitale tra i giovani adulti (di età compresa tra 18 e 35 anni). Le fonti includono articoli di riviste peer-reviewed, revisioni sistematiche e studi neurocognitivi rilevanti pubblicati nell’ultimo decennio. I lavori esaminano le alterazioni strutturali e funzionali, compresi i cambiamenti nella regolazione dell’attenzione, nella memoria di lavoro, nel carico cognitivo e nella funzione esecutiva. La bibliografia è proposta senza alcuna modifica rispetto all’output originale di ChatGPT (per maggiori informazioni su questo e altri test, si veda l’articolo Se la ricerca bibliografica la fa l’intelligenza artificiale).
