ScienceOpenPerceived Shared Understanding Between Humans and Artificial Intelligence: Development and Validation of a Self-Report Scale<p xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" class="first" dir="auto" id="d11201157e170">The perception of shared understanding between individuals is key to constructive
meaning-making, effective collaboration, and satisfying interaction outcomes. Recent
scholarship indicates this operation extends to human–artificial intelligence interactions
such that a validated instrument to capture humans’ perceived shared understanding
(PSU) with artificial intelligence is key to advancing work in that domain. Building
on extant exploratory work, this project develops and initially validates a PSU scale
in two studies. Participants shared past large-language model conversations and then
reflected on them to respond to a pool of candidate scale items. Exploratory factor
analysis yielded a single-factor, eight-item solution interpreted to represent a
<i>social-semantic</i> construal of the artificial intelligence’s shared understanding—that is, that they
are sharing meaning with someone. The scale demonstrates significant associations
with theoretically relevant measures; factor structure and convergent validity are
replicated in a separate sample. This novel instrument points to a convergence of
sociality and meaning in PSU and serves as a springboard for future research and practical
applications.
