The proposed approach constructs a Sociocultural Norm (SCN) Base using Large Language Models (LLMs) for socially aware dialogues. The SCN Base is designed to benefit tasks including conversational information retrieval, contextual information retrieval, and retrieval-enhanced machine learning. By leveraging socially aware dialogues enriched with contextual frames as the primary data source, the approach reduces hallucinations and extracts high-quality and nuanced natural-language norm statements. The study also explores the use of synthetic data for annotating dialogue frames, showing that the quality of SCNs derived from synthetic data is comparable to those from real dialogues annotated with gold frames. Furthermore, the extracted SCNs are effective in a RAG-based model for reasoning about multiple downstream dialogue tasks.

Sociocultural norms help us behave properly in social situations, and they can even help machines learn better. Researchers created a special database called the Sociocultural Norm Base that uses large language models to understand social cues. This base helps machines have more natural conversations and retrieve information more accurately. The study found that using fake data instead of real conversations works just as well, and the extracted norms can be used in machine learning models for various tasks.
