Demographic Prompting at Scale: When More Attributes Hurt LLM--Human Agreement

arXiv:2607.10590v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: We investigate how annotator demographic attributes, supplied as prompt cues, shape the alignment between large language model (LLM) predictions and human annotations across five tasks. Using five open-source LLMs, we systematically vary the number and composition of demographic components in the prompt, spanning every combination from single-attribute through full-attribute configurations. Our experiments reveal three principal findings. First, al...
