Abstract

The development of artificial intelligence (AI) in education has transformed the way students access information and complete academic activities in the Society 5.0 era. However, this convenience has also given rise to the phenomenon of cognitive offloading, namely the tendency of individuals to transfer part of their thinking processes to technology. This essay aims to analyze the phenomenon of cognitive offloading among students using AI from the perspectives of cognitive psychology and neuroscience, as well as examine its implications for modern learning processes. The method used is a literature study by reviewing various studies related to AI, cognitive offloading, working memory, and prefrontal cortex functions. The findings indicate that excessive AI use may reduce students’ cognitive engagement, trigger passive cognition, and weaken critical thinking and problem-solving abilities. In addition, cognitive offloading is associated with decreased stimulation of working memory and prefrontal cortex activity due to the dominance of instant answers provided by technology. Therefore, the use of AI in education should be directed as a cognitive partner rather than a cognitive replacement through the strengthening of metacognitive AI literacy and learning approaches oriented toward reflective thinking processes.

Abstract

Digital communication has become a primary mode of social interaction among emerging adults, raising important questions about its psychological impact. This study examined the influence of digital empathy on subjective well-being among emerging adults who actively use digital media. Digital empathy was measured using the Digital Communication Empathy Scale (DCES) (α = 0.966), which encompasses six dimensions: digital emotion match, digital perceived empathic accuracy, digital perspective-taking, digital sympathy, digital personal distress, and digital empathic anger. Subjective well-being was measured using the BBC Subjective Well-Being Scale (BBC-SWB) (α = 0.951), covering psychological well-being, physical health and well-being, and relationships. This study employed a quantitative regression design involving a sample of 118 emerging adults’ males aged 18-29 and females aged 18-27 in Banyumas who regularly use digital communication, selected through purposive sampling. Results indicated that digital empathy significantly and positively predicted subjective well-being (F (1,116) = 294.447, p < .001, R² = .717), which indicates that DCE accounts for 71.7% of the variance in SWB, meaning that individuals’ well-being can be inferred from their empathetic communication on digital media.
