Dear participant, 

Welcome to the "Trust in AI" study of the Macromedia University of Applied Sciences in Munich. First of all, we would like to thank you for participating in this study. Your contribution is highly valued. The purpose of this study is to examine how cognitive and emotional factors influence trust in technology and the intention to use artificial intelligence (AI) based products in the future.

Before the questionnaire begins, it is important that you are aware of the procedure that will be followed. Therefore, you are asked to carefully read the information below.

Please remember that there are no right or wrong answers. Sometimes you will feel like we are asking the same questions several times. This apparent duplication of questions is necessary to ensure the scientific quality of our study. Please read and answer questions carefully. If you do not understand or cannot answer any of the questions, please tick "don't know". 

Total participation time will take 10 to 12 minutes.

As this research is being carried out under the responsibility of the Macromedia University of Applied Sciences (Munich, Germany), we can guarantee that:

1) Your responses will be processed completely confidentially and anonymously and will be used strictly for academic purposes. 
2) There are no foreseeable risks linked with your participation in this study.
3) Participation in the research is voluntary. You can decide not to participate, and you can exit the survey at any time.
