Challenge: Existing methods for personality detection ignore the connection between psychological knowledge “emotion regulation” and personality traits.
Approach: They propose to use emotion regulation and emotion features to retrieve few-shot samples and provide process CoTs for inferring labels from text.
Outcome: The proposed method outperforms SOTA by 15.05/4.29 on the two benchmark datasets.
