Here is the **Call For Papers** section from the PersonaLLM: Workshop on LLM Persona Modeling at NeurIPS 2025 (copy-ready for word processing):
**Call for Papers**
We invite contributions from NLP, psychology, cognitive science, HCI, sociology, and related fields. The workshop encompasses both technical innovations and interdisciplinary insights across the following key research areas:
* Discovering and Steering LLM Personas: Systematically identifying, extracting, and responsibly steering latent personas embedded in LLMs through probing techniques, controllable generation, and prompt/representation engineering. ([personallmworkshop.github.io][1])
* Evaluating Persona Authenticity and Consistency: Developing metrics, benchmarks, and methodologies to assess persona modeling consistency, psychological authenticity, and behavioral effectiveness against real human data. ([personallmworkshop.github.io][1])
* Psychological and Cognitive Foundations: Incorporating established theories from psychology and cognitive science (personality theories, cognitive biases, social identity, cultural psychology) into computational persona modeling. ([personallmworkshop.github.io][1])
* Responsible Development and Ethical Considerations: Balancing user engagement with privacy, consent, and cultural sensitivities; mitigating stereotyping and bias; ensuring informed consent and ethical deployment guidelines. ([personallmworkshop.github.io][1])
* Technical Innovations and Methodologies: Novel architectures, training paradigms, multi-modal representations, few-shot learning, persona transfer, memory mechanisms, and efficient fine-tuning approaches. ([personallmworkshop.github.io][1])
* Real-World Applications and Case Studies: Therapeutic and mental health settings, legal contexts, education, market research, creative industries, and accessibility technologies. ([personallmworkshop.github.io][1])
Submissions may report new results, negative findings, benchmarks, or visionary perspectives. ([personallmworkshop.github.io][1])
### Submission Guidelines
We welcome submissions in the following formats:
* Long papers: up to 9 pages (excluding references) for original research, comprehensive studies, or position papers. ([personallmworkshop.github.io][1])
* Short papers: up to 4 pages (excluding references) for preliminary results, focused contributions, or negative findings. ([personallmworkshop.github.io][1])
* Demo papers: 2–4 pages (excluding references) presenting systems, tools, or datasets. Must include a link to reproducible resources (code, data, or demo). ([personallmworkshop.github.io][1])
* Extended abstracts: up to 2 pages (excluding references) for early-stage ideas or work-in-progress. These are non-archival and suitable for informal publication. ([personallmworkshop.github.io][1])
* Literature review (special track): 2–4 pages summarizing and discussing relevant research published or accepted within the past 12 months. Must include full citations and publication venues. Authors can present their work as posters or talks. ([personallmworkshop.github.io][1])
Formatting requirements:
* Use the official NeurIPS 2025 style files. ([personallmworkshop.github.io][1])
* Submit a single PDF. ([personallmworkshop.github.io][1])
* For long papers, short papers, demo papers, extended abstracts, and literature review: submissions should be anonymized following NeurIPS anonymization guidelines. ([personallmworkshop.github.io][1])
* Appendix: include any supplementary material in the same PDF — no page limit for the appendix. ([personallmworkshop.github.io][1])
### Important Dates
* Submission opens: Oct 17, 2025 ([personallmworkshop.github.io][1])
* Submission deadline: Nov 4, 2025 (AoE) ([personallmworkshop.github.io][1])
* Notification of decisions: Nov 7, 2025 ([personallmworkshop.github.io][1])
* Paper awards notification: Nov 17, 2025 ([personallmworkshop.github.io][1])
* Workshop: Monday, Dec 1, 2025 (at NeurIPS 2025 in Mexico City) ([personallmworkshop.github.io][1])
The workshop is non-archival; authors are free to publish revised versions elsewhere. Every submission will receive at least two reviews from our program committee, and accepted papers will be presented as oral talks or posters. ([personallmworkshop.github.io][1])
