Research basis

VOICE-IF is an independent prototype grounded in published implementation-intention research. Peter M. Gollwitzer and New York University do not endorse or sponsor this product unless separately agreed. No effect of this system has been scientifically validated. Staying silent is never treated as a failure.

The hypothesis under test

The gap this prototype addresses is between intention and action: a person can intend to raise something and still not raise it at the moment it would change the decision. Speak Up is designed to test whether participant-endorsed if–then plans, paired with a private cue when the planned situation actually occurs, increase the execution of those plans. The primary contrast is the AI-personalised arm against the standard-plan arm; the secondary contrast adds rehearsal.

What this prototype does not claim
  • No effect of this system has been scientifically validated.
  • No researcher or institution endorses it.
  • Silence is never interpreted as a deficit, and airtime is never a target.
  • No inference about personality, emotion, motive or competence is made or stored.
