What it measures

gender_sensitivity_chinese is the Chinese counterpart of gender_sensitivity_english. It runs two zero-shot probes: a neutrality test over 827 occupation titles, and an identification test over 924 gendered terms and names. Neutrality asks whether next-token mass after a title plus 是 ("is/are") splits evenly across listed male and female words. Identification asks whether the same comparison recovers the labelled gender of a kinship term or a constructed Chinese name. There is no PTB perplexity arm and no non-binary term list, unlike the English sibling.

Task format

Programmatic next-token comparison, not a JSON multiple-choice file. Prompts are occupation or name plus 是; targets are ten male and ten female definition characters or words. Preferred scores are gender_bias_score and gender_stereotype_score on [-1, 0] (0 is unbiased) and mean_accuracy on identification. Canary GUID embedded. Zero-shot.
