+# 📊 Dataset Metafore
+
+**Dataset title:** Dataset Metafore  
+**Related paper:** [*Language Models and the Magic of Metaphor: A Comparative Evaluation with Human Judgments*](https://aclanthology.org/2025.clicit-1.68/) — S. Mazzoli, A. Suozzi, G. E. Lebani (CLiC-it 2025).
+
+> This repository contains CSV files used in the study described above. The data were collected from human participants who provided metaphor interpretations and ratings, and from several Italian-trained language models whose normalized log-probabilities were computed on human interpretations and systematically constructed distractors.
+
+---
+
+## 🗂 Overview
+
+The dataset contains 140 metaphors extracted from Italian parliamentary transcripts ([Chamber of Deputies, 2008–2022](https://www.camera.it/leg18/221)). Human participants provided free-form interpretations for each metaphor and rated (1–5) the **conventionality** of the expression and the **adequacy of the sentence context**. For each metaphor there are two distractors created programmatically: a *Literal Distractor (LD)* and an *Opposite Metaphorical Distractor (OMD)*. Several autoregressive LLMs (GePpeTto, Minerva family, LLaMAntino) were evaluated by computing log-likelihoods for each human interpretation and distractor; normalized log probabilities and ranks are provided.

+## Organized variable list (by file)
+
+### `dataset-metafore.csv` — master / metadata for each metaphor
+
+Description: one row per metaphor (n = 140). This file contains the main experimental items, their balancing information, prompts shown to participants, and aggregated human judgment statistics.
+
+| Column | Type | Description |
+|---|---:|---|
+| `questionario` | string | Questionnaire identifier in which the item appeared (e.g., `Q1`–`Q10`) |
+| `m_id` | string | Metaphor identifier (e.g., `M1`, `M42`) |
+| `gruppo_bilanciamento` | string | Balancing group (`G1`–`G7`) corresponding to the syntactic pattern distribution |
+| `item` | string | Full sentence containing the metaphor |
+| `v_term` | string | Lexical item annotated as metaphorical |
+| `pattern` | string | Syntactic pattern of the metaphor (e.g., `N₁ di N₂`, `V ∼ N`) |
+| `valenza` | string | Valency of the metaphorical element (`nessuno`, `intransitiva`, `transitiva`) |
+| `classe_lessicale` | string | Part of speech of the metaphorical element (e.g., `N₁`, `Verbo`, `Aggettivo`) |
+| `prompt` | string | Sentence frame shown to participants for interpretation elicitation |
+| `avg_conv` | numeric | Mean conventionality rating (1–5) |
+| `avg_cntxt` | numeric | Mean context adequacy rating (1–5) |
+| `entropia di shannon` | numeric | Shannon entropy of interpretation distribution (measure of variability) |
+| `consenso_max` | numeric | Maximum consensus score (relative frequency of most common interpretation) |
+| `n_int` | integer | Number of human interpretations collected for the item |
+
