摘要

Generative Artificial Intelligence (GenAI) is increasingly shaping higher education, yet its pedagogical potential in psychology education remains underexplored. This Perspective synthesizes emerging applications of GenAI across psychology subdisciplines based on a targeted literature review (2023–2025). Across this body of literature, three recurring pedagogical functions emerge: authentic simulation, adaptive scaffolding, and critical epistemic reflection. Building on this synthesis, we present transferable teaching examples—including AI-supported case- and problem-based learning, structured support for academic writing, and guided bias analysis—that illustrate how GenAI can be implemented across psychology curricula. The Perspective concludes with key research priorities to advance evidence-informed and responsible integration of GenAI in psychology education in higher education.
