Psychological Coercion Identification Dataset
Overview
A labeled dataset of 12,655 text chunks derived from 24 publicly available YouTube interview transcripts, annotated for psychological coercion techniques and PSYOP (Psychological Operations) indicators.
Built to support fine-tuning of open-source language models on coercive language detection, propaganda identification, and influence operation analysis.
Intended Uses
- Fine-tuning NLP classifiers to detect psychological manipulation in text
- Research into propaganda, coercion, and influence operations
- Training content moderation systems for media literacy tools
- Academic study of persuasion and coercive communication patterns

Class Imbalance Note
This dataset reflects real-world distributions of coercive language in interview and documentary content. The 89.6% negative class majority is intentional and realistic — most speech is not overtly coercive even in content that contains manipulative elements.
When fine-tuning models on this dataset, consider:
- Weighted loss functions (e.g.
class_weight='balanced'in sklearn) - Oversampling the minority class (e.g. SMOTE)
- Adjusting classification thresholds post-training
Annotation Methodology
Text chunks were annotated using Claude Haiku (claude-haiku-4-5) via the Anthropic API with a controlled vocabulary system prompt enforcing consistent label taxonomy across all 14 technique categories. Chunk size was fixed at approximately 30 words to capture sentence-level coercive patterns.
All source material consists of publicly available YouTube content. Transcripts were extracted using YT-DLP with automatic deduplication applied to remove caption overlap artifacts inherent in YouTube's ASR system.
