# DISCOPALPsychClassification

Multi-label **psychological feature classification** over **Spanish sonnets** for PoetryMTEB, derived from [DISCO PAL](https://arxiv.org/abs/2007.04626) (Barbado et al., 2020).

Experts marked whether each sonnet **refers to** literature-motivated psychological concepts (binary presence). Labels follow the DISCO PAL psychological inventory (rooted in personality-disorder / clinical-educational modelling literature cited by the authors), aggregated by **median** across three annotators.

## Dataset Card

| Item | Description |
|------|-------------|
| **Source annotations** | [DISCO PAL](https://github.com/AlbertoBarbado/DISCO_PAL) (`Processed Annotations/poems_corpus_all.csv`) |
| **Source poems** | [DISCO](https://github.com/pruizf/disco) |
| **Paper** | Barbado et al., [arXiv:2007.04626](https://arxiv.org/abs/2007.04626) |
| **Languages** | Spanish (`es`) |
| **Unit** | Full sonnet text (`poem`) |
| **Labels** | Multi-label subset of **21** psychological concepts (binary) |
| **Aggregation** | Median of 3 experts; treat median ≥ 0.5 as positive |
| **Filtering** | Poems with **no** positive psychological label are removed (9 poems) |
| **Size** | train=210; test=55 |
| **Splits** | Stratified by primary label (first taxonomy-ordered positive) ≈ 80% / 20%, seed=42 |
| **License** | [Apache License 2.0](https://www.apache.org/licenses/LICENSE-2.0) |
| **Evaluation metrics** | Multi-label classification on embeddings: **macro/micro F1**, **Average Precision (AP)** |

Mean labels/poem ≈ **5.43**.

Codebook: `label_taxonomy.json`.

Upstream Spanish column names are preserved in the taxonomy (`name_es`) for traceability; classification uses English `label_names`.

## Features

| Field | Type | Description |
|-------|------|-------------|
| `id` | string | Example id (`discopal-psych-{source_index}`) |
| `source_index` | int64 | Row index in upstream CSV |
| `poem` | string | Full Spanish sonnet text |
| `labels` | list[int64] | Psychological class indices |
| `label_names` | list[string] | Canonical English concept names |
| `n_annotators` | int64 | Experts aggregated (3; median) |

## Construction method

1. Load `poems_corpus_all.csv` (median of a1/a2/a3).
2. Normalize column names; map 21 Spanish columns → English taxonomy.
3. Keep concepts with median ≥ 0.5; drop poems with an empty label set.
4. Stratified train/test split by primary (lowest-id positive) label, seed=42.

## Intended use / limitations

- For **PoetryMTEB** multi-label probing of Spanish poem embeddings.
- Labels encode **literary / conceptual presence**, not clinical diagnoses of authors or readers.
- Companion affective dataset: `DISCOPALAffectClassification`.
