# Mawqif: A Multi-label Arabic Dataset for Target-specific Stance Detection

- *Mawqif* is the first Arabic dataset that can be used for target-specific stance detection. 

- This is a multi-label dataset where each data point is annotated for stance, sentiment, and sarcasm.

- We benchmark *Mawqif* dataset on the stance detection task and evaluate the performance of four BERT-based models. Our best model achieves a macro-F1 of 78.89\%.



# Mawqif Statistics

- This dataset consists of **4,121** tweets in multi-dialectal Arabic. Each tweet is annotated with a stance toward one of three targets: “COVID-19 vaccine,” “digital transformation,” and “women empowerment.” In addition, it is annotated with sentiment and sarcasm polarities.

- The following figure illustrates the labels’ distribution across all targets, and the distribution per target.
