English-Slovene sample of the ETHICS dataset ETHICS-EN-SL 1.0 contains an English-Slovene sample derived from the ETHICS dataset (Hendrycks et al. 2021), prepared for a master’s thesis on language as a factor in the moral evaluation of large language models. The resource contains selected examples from five ETHICS subsets: commonsense moral judgment, deontology, justice, virtue ethics, and utilitarianism.
The dataset contains 100 examples or scenario pairs per subset. The English files contain the selected examples from the original ETHICS dataset, while the Slovene files contain translated and partially localized versions of the same examples. The bilingual files align the English and Slovene versions row by row. For the Slovene part of the study, a human reference baseline was established on the basis of majority judgments by Slovene annotators.
The resource is intended for research on multilingual moral evaluation, language effects in large language models, value alignment, dataset translation and localization, and the creation of localized evaluation resources for less-resourced languages. The data are distributed as UTF-8 encoded TSV files with header rows. The package also includes a README file with the directory structure and column descriptions.
The resource is based on the ETHICS dataset introduced by Hendrycks et al. (2021):
