用荣格认知功能实现激活引导:面向联合人格目标的方向提取
Activation Steering with Jungian Cognitive Functions
AI 导读
研究提出一种 target-first 框架,直接从联合人格目标中提取激活引导方向,并考察其能否分解为单个特质方向,同时构建了 NarrationDB 数据集,将角色自述与八种荣格认知功能的联合评分自动关联。在三个模型上的实验显示,八种功能的问卷得分均可控,测试的两功能联合目标出现协同变化;直接提取的联合方向与对应单个方向比无关配对更接近,但仍保留大量残差成分。

Abstract:Controlling combinations of personality-related tendencies is important for adapting large language models to diverse interaction needs. But successful single-trait steering does not establish how to construct interventions for joint targets, or whether existing trait directions adequately represent them. We introduce a target-first framework that directly extracts steering directions from joint personality targets and then examines their decomposition into individual directions. To support this framework, we construct NarrationDB, linking character self-narrations to automatically evaluated joint scores across eight Jungian-inspired functions, a correspondence not directly available in existing Big Five- or MBTI-oriented resources. Experiments on three models demonstrate questionnaire-score controllability across the eight functions and coordinated changes in a tested two-function target. Directly extracted joint directions are better approximated by their corresponding individual directions than by unrelated pairings, but retain substantial residual components. Our work provides a method and resource for investigating joint personality control, with evidence that individual steering directions capture part, but not all, of the structure of joint targets.
