# DaKultur: Evaluating the Cultural Awareness of Language Models for Danish with Native Speakers

This repository covers the anonymized dataset + optional demographic information from the cultural evaluation study "DaKultur" ([Müller-Eberstein et al., 2025](https://mxij.me/x/dakultur-paper)). It includes the following fields:

* `input`: The user input, prompting the models for knowledge of Danish culture.
* `output_[ID]`: The output generated by one of the evaluated models.
* `judgment_[ID]`: The user's judgment of the model's output (`1` for accept, `-1` for reject).
* `comment_[ID]` (optional): An optional user comment regarding the model's output.
* `topic`: The human-annotated topic of the interaction.
* `region` (optional): The region where the user reports having grown up.
* `age` (optional): The user's self-reported age range in decades.
* `gender` (optional): The user's self-reported gender identity.

The evaluated models and their corresponding IDs include: 
1. [SnakModel-7B (instruct)](https://huggingface.co/NLPnorth/snakmodel-7b-instruct);
2. Llama2-7B (instruct) + Danish instruction-tuning;
3. Llama2-7B (base) + Danish instruction-tuning.

The content of the dataset has been validated by Danish-speakers with respect to whether contents are culturally relevant, and whether judgments are coherent. For full details, please refer to [the corresponding research paper](https://mxij.me/x/dakultur-paper).
