No findings were extractable from the material analysed.
Safety was not reported in the material analysed. Check the source before drawing any conclusion about harm.
The source did not state who this applies to in practice.
Graded across the dimensions that decide whether you should act, each from what the source actually supports. There is no single score, and where a dimension was not assessed it says so.
This record has not been graded across any dimension yet. Treat the label above as provisional and read the source.
What is missing. This record has no bottom line, key findings, reported figures, evidence dimensions. That is a gap in the analysis, not a judgement about the study.
While HCI increasingly examines AI-safety for youth, the literature lacks a comprehensive view of what risks have been identified, how they are addressed, and whether proposed protections work in-practice. We systematically reviewed 100 empirical HCI studies involving children and youth interacting with or exposed to AI across schools, homes, care settings, and public services. Using the YAIR taxonomy for risks and the MIT Mitigation Taxonomy for countermeasures, we map which risks have been identified, whether each risk is addressed by countermeasure(s), and whether each countermeasure for that risk is implemented and even evaluated. The risk-countermeasure mapping shows that most risks are matched only with proposed/ideated countermeasures; few countermeasures have been implemented, and fewer still evaluated; and existing evaluations often measure technical performance rather than protection from harm. We identify where coverage is absent, where safeguards remain untested, and propose concrete directions for HCI research to strengthen youth AI-safety.
