LLM self-reports predict behavior selectively: TPB reaches human-level coherence within shared conversations but collapses across sessions for primed behaviors, unlike Big 5, with persona prompting stabilizing reports but not actions.
Fine-tuning LLMs on essays reduces variance in IPIP-NEO responses across models but does not raise full five-trait profile accuracy above near-chance levels from unguided text.
Introduces a French OSCE dialogue dataset of 240 interactions and a modular LLM-based controllable virtual patient generation system with multi-level LLM-as-Judge evaluation for clinical skills training.
Bridging-inference knowledge graphs capture discourse-level semantic links that yield more coherent and stable LLM persona identification than lexical or stylistic baselines.
Simulations show that cooperative outcomes in network games with personality-driven LLM agents depend on both network connectivity and the placement of pro-social personalities, not just pairwise interaction preferences.
Temperature and persona variations shape consensus speed in LLM multi-agent coding but produce no robust accuracy gains over single agents on human-annotated tutoring transcripts.
Applies sparse autoencoders to locate and steer latent features for OCEAN personality traits in LLMs while preserving benchmark performance.
News users exhibit circadian rhythms at macro scale, power-law session intervals at meso scale, and exponential action timings at micro scale, with clicks primarily driven by historical interests that weaken as content diversity rises.
