CCBench-Health (Culture-CoT): leaderboard
CCBench-Health (2026) tests whether LLMs adapt health advice to cultural norms that 60 personas from six cultures signal only implicitly in earlier conversation, scoring answers against persona-specific checklists of norms to follow or avoid. Cultural Competence Score in percent when the model is also told to reason step by step about cultural cues first; higher is better.
Metric: Cultural Competence Score (%; harmonic mean of the follow rate and the avoid rate, the shares of checklist recommendations satisfied for norms a persona follows or avoids; 60 personas with graded norm-adherence states across six cultures (Afghan, Burmese, Chinese, Maori, Nepali, Vietnamese), 52 real health questions each (3,120 interactions); GPT-5.2 checklist evaluator; temperature 0.7; history plus a Culture-CoT instruction to reason step by step about cultural cues first)). Source: arxiv.org. Saturation forecast: Around April 2028. 5 models tracked.
