Розробленння чатботу для надання психологічної допомоги студентам у кризових ситуаціях

Abstract

This paper outlines the development of a chatbot designed to provide psychological support to students facing crisis situations. Recognizing the increasing stressors impacting student mental well-being and the limitations of traditional support systems, this initiative explores the potential of AI-driven conversational agents. The chatbot aims to offer initial assessment, deliver self-help techniques and psychoeducational resources, provide empathetic support, and facilitate referrals to professional help when necessary. Key functionalities include mood tracking, stress management advice, and crisis contact information. Ethical considerations regarding privacy and the limitations of AI in mental health support are also discussed. This project seeks to create an accessible and confidential tool to promote student mental health and resilience.
