GYROval: A Robust Benchmark for Cultural Value Orientation in Large Language Models

RESUMO

We present a robust benchmark for measuring cultural value orientation in large language models on the two Inglehart-Welzel axes over several domains and roles (hence GYROval - Gridded Yielding of Robust value Orientation), together with the results of administering it to twenty models. Items are binary contrastive scenarios in the sense introduced by CDEval: both options are legitimate courses of action, neither is correct, there is no answer key, and a model's score on an axis is the proportion of its responses falling on the counted pole. Eleven of the twenty models were additionally administered a paired Russian translation of the identical items and a second sampling temperature. The instrument is publicly released in both languages. Stability was assessed by treating the vignette as the unit of analysis, ranking the models within the levels of each perturbation factor, and summarising the agreement between levels by tie-corrected Kendall's \emph{W} against an empirical permutation null.
