High Emotional Intelligence, Low AI Trust?

Do adolescents with high emotional intelligence (EQ) trust artificial intelligence less?
This video explores a growing psychological insight: emotionally intelligent teenagers tend to be more cautious, critical, and selective when interacting with AI systems.
We examine how self-awareness, empathy, emotional regulation, and social sensitivity influence adolescents’ perceptions of AI credibility, decision-making, and digital trust. Rather than blindly relying on algorithms, high-EQ adolescents often question intent, limitations, and ethical concerns behind artificial intelligence.
🔍 In this video, you’ll learn:
What emotional intelligence really means in adolescence
Why high-EQ teens show skepticism toward AI tools
The difference between emotional reasoning and algorithmic logic
How empathy and social intelligence shape trust decisions
What this means for education, mental health, and AI design
📚 Who is this video for?
Students of psychology, education, and cognitive science
Teachers, parents, and counselors
