Leveraging on large language model to classify sentences: a case study applying STAGES scoring methodology for sentence completion test on ego development by Xavier Bronlet

“…Accurate assessments of ego development stages are vital for creating effective strategies in organizational psychology and corporate analytics.MethodsThis case study investigates the agreement between expert and automated classifications of ego development stages, aiming to evaluate the potential of automation in this domain leveraging artificial intelligence and large language models. Cohen’s kappa statistic has been used to measure the agreement between classifications made by experts and those generated by an automated process leveraging large language models.ResultsThe comparison between the scoring of experts and large language models yielded a weighted Kappa value of 0.779, indicating a substantial level of agreement that is statistically meaningful and unlikely to be due to chance.DiscussionWhile this suggests valuable scoring that leverages large language models, it also highlights the opportunity for further refinement to closely match expert assessments. …”
