CharMoral: A Character Morality Dataset for Morally Dynamic Character Analysis in Long-Form Narratives

摘要

This paper introduces CharMoral, a dataset designed to analyze the moral evolution of characters in long-form narratives. CharMoral, built from 1,337 movie synopses, includes annotations for character actions, context, and morality labels. To automatically construct CharMoral, we propose a four-stage framework, utilizing Large Language Models, to automatically classify actions as moral or immoral based on context. Human evaluations and various experiments confirm the framework’s effectiveness in moral reasoning tasks in multiple genres. Our code and the CharMoral dataset are publicly available at https://github.com/BaeSuyoung/CharMoral.
