# Dataset Card for GlobalOpinionQA

## Dataset Summary
The data contains a subset of survey questions about global issues and opinions adapted from the [World Values Survey](https://www.worldvaluessurvey.org/) and [Pew Global Attitudes Survey](https://www.pewresearch.org/).

The data is further described in the paper: [Towards Measuring the Representation of Subjective Global Opinions in Language Models](https://arxiv.org/abs/2306.16388). 

## Purpose
In our paper, we use this dataset to analyze the opinions that large language models (LLMs) reflect on complex global issues. 
Our goal is to gain insights into potential biases in AI systems by evaluating their performance on subjective topics.

## Data Format
The data is in a CSV file with the following columns:
- question: The text of the survey question.
- selections: A dictionary where the key is the country name and the value is a list of percentages of respondents who selected each answer option for that country.
- options: A list of the answer options for the given question.
- source: GAS/WVS depending on whether the question is coming from Global Attitudes Survey or World Value Survey.
  
## Usage
```python
from datasets import load_dataset
# Loading the data
dataset = load_dataset("Anthropic/llm_global_opinions")
```
## Disclaimer
We recognize the limitations in using this dataset to evaluate LLMs, as they were not specifically
designed for this purpose. Therefore, we acknowledge that the construct validity of these datasets when applied to LLMs may be limited.
