Objectives

Narrative objectives1

The present study aims to examine the performance of large language models (LLMs) on an examination that requires knowledge of occupational mental health. In addition, the study investigates whether tuned prompts can improve LLM performance. The study adopts ChatGPT (Generative Pretrained Transformer-4, GPT-4) as the LLM, and adopts the Certification Test for Mental Health Management organized by the Osaka Chamber of Commerce and Industry as the examination. We set two prompt conditions as factorial design: simple texts of questions (simple prompt condition), and texts with techniques to get better results (tuned prompt condition). The scores of four sets of examinations are compared between these two conditions.
