Mohammad Amin Abbasi, Farnaz Sadat Mirnezami, Hassan Naderi · 2024
This paper explores the intersection of psychology and artificial intelligence through the development and evaluation of specialized Large Language Models (LLMs).We introduce PsychoLex 1 , a suite of resources designed to enhance LLMs' proficiency in psychological tasks in both Persian and English.Key contributions include the PsychoLexQA dataset for instructional content and the Psycho-LexEval dataset for rigorous evaluation of LLMs in complex psychological scenarios.Additionally, we present the Psycho-LexLLaMA model, optimized specifically for psychological applications, demonstrating superior performance compared to general-purpose models.The findings underscore the potential of tailored LLMs for advancing psychological research and applications, while also highlighting areas for further refinement.This research offers a foundational step towards integrating LLMs into specialized psychological domains, with implications for future advancements in AI-driven psychological practice.
