The paper investigates whether large language models (LLMs) can generate synthetic cyberbullying conversations that replicate the social dynamics of real interactions. Using a comprehensive framework, the authors compare authentic dialogues with synthetic ones from GPT, Grok, and LLaMA across structural, linguistic, affective, and temporal dimensions, and conduct human evaluations of realism. Results show that while LLMs preserve high‑level interaction patterns, they systematically distort finer‑grained social phenomena, with model‑specific biases such as GPT’s suppression of harmful content and Grok’s amplification of aggression.

The paper introduces a Situation–Internal state–Behavior Persona method to improve large language models’ ability to impersonate real individuals in social media contexts. It also proposes an evaluation protocol that supplies LLM evaluators with reference information about the target individual. Experiments on a new dataset of social media replies show the method surpasses state‑of‑the‑art in‑context learning baselines, and the protocol correlates moderately with human judgments, while additional tests on fictional characters confirm broader applicability.

The paper introduces the Persuasion Index (PI), a taxonomy of 15 persuasion dimensions grounded in psychological and communication theories, implemented with 55 lexicon- and rule-based sub-features. PI is modular, allowing individual detectors to be swapped while preserving its theoretical framework. Evaluations on four English argumentative datasets show that PI provides a shared, lightweight feature space that captures meaningful predictive signals and reveals consistent dimension-level associations with persuasion outcomes, with variations across topics and stances.
The paper investigates which demographic attributes large language models (LLMs) default to when annotating text without explicit demographic cues. By comparing non‑demographic, placebo‑conditioned, and demographic‑conditioned prompts on politeness and offensiveness tasks in the POPQUORN dataset, the authors find that LLMs exhibit notable gender, race, and age influences in their annotations. This contrasts with earlier studies that reported no such effects, highlighting the importance of considering demographic bias in LLM‑based annotation workflows.
The paper introduces BenCoDiC, a large Bengali cyberbullying corpus focused on political news discourse. It contains 50,250 textual instances from 100 YouTube videos, preserving caption–comment–reply relationships and organized via a nine‑dimensional star schema. A two‑tier human annotation process achieved high reliability (Fleiss' κ = 0.86, Krippendorff's α = 0.86), and transformer experiments show that adding conversational context modestly improves classification over isolated text.

The paper proposes a Friedkin‑Johnsen based framework to identify influential users in online social networks and assess how they shape community opinion. By manipulating initial opinions in experiments, the authors show that top influencers can significantly shift overall community sentiment, and their influence extends beyond direct neighbors to second‑degree contacts. The framework is validated on a tweet dataset from the U.S. presidential election, illustrating the power of digital influencers to alter public opinion.
