Extended Data Table 6 The effectiveness of single-trait shaping

From: A psychometric framework for evaluating and shaping personality traits in large language models

  1. The effectiveness of single-trait shaping, presented as Spearman’s rank correlation coefficients (ρs) between ordinal targeted levels of personality and observed IPIP-NEO personality scores, Level 1- and Level 9-prompted score medians ([low, high]), and deltas (Δs) between those score medians. Greater Δs indicate better model performance. Statistics are organized columnwise by model and rowwise by Big Five domain. All correlations are statistically significant at p < 0.0001 (two-sided values computed using Student’s t-distribution); n = 450 per correlation.
