A new research paper proposes the application of Rasch measurement theory (RMT) to better evaluate Large Language Models (LLMs). The paper argues that standard evaluation practices often overlook crucial factors contributing to LLM performance. By employing RMT, which decomposes ratings into separable facets, researchers can identify miscalibrated measurements and rater biases. A case study using the Measuring Hate Speech corpus demonstrated that LLMs exhibit systematic differences from human raters in areas such as severity, item calibration, and scale usage, which are typically obscured by conventional evaluation methods.
