on the Labor Market: A Systematic Review. Journal of Business Research, 136, 662-671


The use of artificial intelligence (AI) in the labor market has been a topic of great interest in
recent years. This systematic review conducted by the authors aims to provide a comprehensive
analysis of the impact of AI on the labor market through a review of the literature published
between 2015 and 2020.


The authors identify six distinct areas in which AI is affecting the labor market. The first area
is job displacement, which refers to the displacement of workers by AI-powered machines or
software. The second area is new job creation, which refers to the creation of new jobs in
industries that are enabled by AI. The third area is changes in skill requirements, which refers to
the changes in the skills and education required for workers in the AI-enabled industries. The
fourth area is changes in working conditions, which refers to the changes in the nature of work and
workplace due to the introduction of AI. The fifth area is labor market polarization, which refers
to the impact of AI on income distribution and inequality. The sixth area is the impact of AI on
labor market institutions, which refers to the changes in the institutions that regulate the labor
market.

Use and Mental Health: A Meta-Analysis. Journal of Counseling Psychology, 67(6), 732-748.

This meta-analysis investigates the relationship between social media use and mental health. The
authors analyzed 70 studies published from 2009 to 2019 and found that social media use was
associated with negative mental health outcomes such as depression, anxiety, and loneliness.
However, the study also suggests that the relationship between social media use and mental health
is complex and that more research is needed to fully understand this relationship.

The analysis revealed that heavy social media use was linked to increased symptoms of depression
and anxiety, particularly in adolescents and young adults. Moreover, social media use was
associated with feelings of social isolation and loneliness, which can also contribute to poor
mental health.

The authors suggest that social media's negative impact on mental health may be due to its
addictive nature, as well as the way it can promote social comparisons, cyberbullying, and online
harassment.

Overall, the study highlights the need for individuals to be aware of their social media use and
for policymakers and tech companies to take steps to mitigate the negative impacts of social media
on mental health. Further research is needed to fully understand the relationship between social
media use and mental health, including the potential moderating factors and individual differences
that may affect this relationship.

Change on Food Security: A Systematic Review. Global Environmental Change, 72, 102499.

This systematic review examines the impact of climate change on food security by analyzing the
literature from 2016 to 2021. The study highlights the ways in which climate change affects food
production, distribution, and access, as well as the vulnerability of different populations to food
insecurity. The authors conclude that climate change poses a significant threat to global food
security and that urgent action is needed to address this issue.

The systematic review of literature from 2016 to 2021 indicates that climate change has a profound
impact on food security. Climate change affects food production, distribution, and access, causing
an increase in food insecurity among different populations. The study shows that different regions
around the world are particularly vulnerable to climate change's effects on food security, such as
the African continent and small island developing states.

The study underscores the need to develop strategies to mitigate climate change's impact on food
security. Such strategies may include investing in climate-smart agriculture and irrigation
systems, promoting sustainable land use practices, and building resilience among vulnerable
populations. Overall, this review underscores the need for comprehensive and integrated approaches
to address the interrelated challenges of climate change and food security.
