Ethical principles | Connotations | Issues faced by adolescents |
Respect for autonomy | Ensuring informed consent and informed choice, ensuring that humans have complete and effective autonomy, and requiring that the operation of any artificial intelligence be supervised by humans | Safety and trustworthiness of screening methods; full approval from adolescents and parents; willingness to use artificial intelligence for screening[79] |
Nonmaleficence | Privacy, security and “capability warnings”[78]; artificial intelligence technology must be able to strongly resist malicious use, including avoiding harm to the natural environment and all living things | Privacy leakage and data abuse; difficulties in oversight and accountability; adverse effects and stigma with irreversible damage |
Beneficence | Must be beneficial for not only the patients but also the medical cause, medical sciences and even the well-being of the entire human race | Screening scales need to be refined; no consensus (such as ethical evaluation acceptance of the technology) among different stakeholders[37] |
Justice | Everyone in society has equal rights to reasonably enjoy health resources and participate in the distribution; prosperity is promoted; and unity is maintained | Development of artificial intelligence cannot benefit all groups of young people[12,14,21,22,80]; intergenerational transmission maintains inequality[46,78] |
