Specializing Large Language Models to Simulate Survey Response Distributions for Global Populations (2025.naacl-long)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Prior work has focused on using large language models to simulate human behaviors . but, LLMs are known to generate erroneous, stereotypical, or overconfident answers . |
| Approach: | They propose to specialize large language models for simulating survey response distributions by first-token probabilities. |
| Outcome: | The proposed model outperforms other methods and zero-shot classifiers on unseen questions, countries, and a completely unseened survey. |
