• Title: Matching Theory and Data with Personal-ITY: What a Corpus of Italian YouTube Comments Reveals About Personality
• Authors: Elisa Bassignana, Malvina Nissim and Viviana Patti
• Abstract summary: We create a novel corpus of YouTube comments in Italian, where authors are labelled with personality traits. The traits are derived from one of the mainstream personality theories in psychology research, named MBTI. We study the task of personality prediction in itself on our corpus as well as on TwiSty.

• Abstract: As a contribution to personality detection in languages other than English, we rely on distant supervision to create Personal-ITY, a novel corpus of YouTube comments in Italian, where authors are labelled with personality traits. The traits are derived from one of the mainstream personality theories in psychology research, named MBTI. Using personality prediction experiments, we (i) study the task of personality prediction in itself on our corpus as well as on TwiSty, a Twitter dataset also annotated with MBTI labels; (ii) carry out an extensive, in-depth analysis of the features used by the classifier, and view them specifically under the light of the original theory that we used to create the corpus in the first place. We observe that no single model is best at personality detection, and that while some traits are easier than others to detect, and also to match back to theory, for other, less frequent traits the picture is much more blurred.

  This paper introduces a novel perspective to evaluate the personality fidelity of RPAs with psychological scales. Experiments include various types of RPAs and LLMs, covering 32 distinct characters on 14 widely used psychological scales. With InCharacter, we show that state-of-the-art RPAs exhibit personalities highly aligned with the human-perceived personalities of the characters, achieving an accuracy up to 80.7%.

  We investigate whether perceived personality in language models is exhibited consistently in their language generation. We show that language models such as BERT and GPT2 can consistently identify and reflect personality markers in different contexts. This behavior illustrates an ability to be manipulated in a highly predictable way, and frames them as tools for identifying personality traits and controlling personas in applications such as dialog systems.

  We present a novel corpus for personality prediction in Italian, containing a larger number of authors and a different genre compared to previously available resources. The corpus is built exploiting Distant Supervision, assigning Myers-Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI) labels to YouTube comments, and can lend itself to a variety of experiments. We report on preliminary experiments on Personal-ITY, which can serve as a baseline for future work, showing that some types are easier to predict than others, and discussing the perks of cross-dataset prediction.
