Abstract

Emotion recognition systems powered by artificial intelligence (AI) have rapidly gained prominence in mental health, education, and human-computer interaction. However, many existing models are built on limited, often Western-centric datasets, which overlook the rich diversity of non-verbal communication across cultures. This paper proposes a culturally responsive AI framework for designing emotion recognition systems that are inclusive of varied facial expressions, gestures, gaze behaviors, and prosodic cues observed in different cultural contexts. Using an interdisciplinary methodology that combines affective computing, cross-cultural psychology, and sociolinguistics, this study analyzes discrepancies in emotional signaling and examines how AI systems can be trained to interpret emotional data in a contextually appropriate way. Findings reveal that culturally insensitive models risk misinterpretation, leading to ethical and practical challenges in real-world applications. The paper offers design principles, ethical considerations, and implementation strategies for developing AI systems that are not only accurate but also equitable and socially aware. This work contributes to ongoing efforts in human-centered AI and highlights the importance of cultural sensitivity in next-generation affective technologies.

Abstract

The virtual supervision revolution has significantly transformed the way counselor competencies are developed, particularly in the context of tele-mental health services. This study explores the effectiveness of AI-enhanced feedback systems in improving professional skills during online supervision sessions. Using a qualitative research approach involving in-depth interviews and analysis of virtual supervision documentation, the findings reveal that AI integration enables faster, more objective, and structured feedback compared to traditional supervision methods. The system also facilitates enhanced self-reflection, ethical sensitivity, and data-driven decision-making among counselors. These outcomes suggest that AI technology holds great promise in fostering an adaptive, personalized, and sustainable training and supervision ecosystem in the digital era. Nonetheless, concerns related to data privacy, algorithmic accuracy, and technological infrastructure readiness remain critical issues that warrant further investigation.

Abstract

Background. Self-harm among teenagers has become an increasing public health concern, often linked to emotional distress, social pressure, and undiagnosed mental health issues. Traditional intervention strategies often detect these behaviors after they occur. The emergence of artificial intelligence (AI) in mental health opens new possibilities for earlier detection and proactive intervention, especially through behavior tracking technologies. Purpose. This study aimed to explore early intervention strategies for self-harm prevention by utilizing AI-driven behavior tracking tools among teenagers. The research also examined the potential effectiveness of AI in identifying early warning signs based on digital behavior patterns. Method. This mixed-methods study involved 150 teenagers aged 13–18 across three urban schools. AI-based applications were installed on participants’ devices with consent to monitor digital activity patterns (e.g., sleep irregularities, social withdrawal, online search behavior). Psychological assessments and structured interviews were also conducted. Data were analyzed using a combination of statistical trend analysis and qualitative content analysis. Results. Findings indicate that AI algorithms successfully detected behavioral anomalies correlated with self-harm risk, such as significant decreases in social interaction, increased usage of depressive language, and disrupted sleep patterns. The AI tool enabled counselors to initiate timely interventions before self-harm behaviors escalated. Participants reported greater emotional safety and support when interventions occurred early. Conclusion. AI-driven behavior tracking shows promise as an early intervention tool for preventing self-harm in teenagers. Integrating such technology with school counseling programs could enhance mental health support systems. However, ethical concerns regarding privacy and data sensitivity must be addressed to ensure responsible implementation.

Abstract

Mental health among adolescents in rural schools is increasingly recognized as a critical public health issue, yet these areas often lack access to professional psychological support. This study aims to explore the design considerations and implementation strategies of AI-driven chatbots as accessible and scalable tools for supporting adolescent mental health in rural educational settings. Using a qualitative research design, the study reviews existing literature and analyzes user-centered design principles, AI natural language processing capabilities, and ethical constraints in deploying mental health chatbots. Findings suggest that culturally-sensitive content, confidentiality safeguards, and integration with school counseling protocols are crucial to the effectiveness of such tools. The study proposes a conceptual design framework for future development and implementation. This research contributes to the development of inclusive and adaptive digital interventions in underserved communities.
