However, as the final hiring decision is likely to remain with humans, prevalent human biases could still cause discrimination. This work investigates the impact of an AI-based system’s candidate recommendations on humans’ hiring decisions and how this relation could be moderated by an Explainable AI (XAI) approach. We used a self-developed platform and conducted an online experiment with 194 participants. Our quantitative and qualitative findings suggest that the recommendations of an AI-based system can reduce discrimination against older and female candidates but appear to cause fewer selections of foreign-race candidates. Contrary to our expectations, the same XAI approach moderated these effects differently depending on the context."}],"year":"2022","status":"public","date_created":"2023-01-17T15:17:03Z","citation":{"bibtex":"@article{Hofeditz_Clausen_Rieß_Mirbabaie_Stieglitz_2022, title={Applying XAI to an AI-based system for candidate management to mitigate bias and discrimination in hiring}, DOI={10.1007/s12525-022-00600-9}, journal={Electronic Markets (ELMA)}, publisher={Springer Science and Business Media LLC}, author={Hofeditz, Lennart and Clausen, Sünje and Rieß, Alexander and Mirbabaie, Milad and Stieglitz, Stefan}, year={2022} }","chicago":"Hofeditz, Lennart, Sünje Clausen, Alexander Rieß, Milad Mirbabaie, and Stefan Stieglitz. “Applying XAI to an AI-Based System for Candidate Management to Mitigate Bias and Discrimination in Hiring.” Electronic Markets (ELMA), 2022. https://doi.org/10.1007/s12525-022-00600-9.","short":"L.
