| dc.description.abstract | Higher education is going through a phase of constant transformation, especially in the use of generative AI by its students from the most varied study cycles. This has brought several benefits, but also ethical implications, particularly in research activities. Thus, with the development of the research we intend to obtain answers to the following research question: What are the benefits and ethical implications of using generative AI in the research activities of doctoral students? To answer this question, we conducted exploratory and descriptive research, as we explored the use of AI and described its impact on the research activities of doctoral students at a university in Mozambique. As a data collection tool, we applied a questionnaire survey to all the students in the two postgraduate courses at the respective university. A total of 117 students from both courses responded to the study, 61 of which were validated, which shows that the response rate was more than half, at 52.16% of the total sample. The results show that there are several benefits, but also ethical implications that must be considered in the research activities of doctoral students and which are crucial to guarantee the quality, transparency, and fairness of the teaching-learning process. | eng |
