Internal consistency (ICatom) captures a distinct dimension of persona fidelity not measured by prior accuracy or retest metrics

Entities in the same semantic neighborhood but without a typed relation to this one — candidates for new edges or unrecognized duplicates.

• ICatom (Atomic-level Internal Consistency)method0.847
  Measures consistency of persona expression within a single generated response via inverse normalized standard deviation
• Internal Consistency (persona)concept0.815
  Coherence and stability of persona expression within a single generated response
• Internal Consistency Monitoringconcept0.795
  The inferred mechanism underlying ESR whereby the model tracks coherence of its own outputs
• A model may produce internally coherent persona outputs while shifting characteristics across different generations, so intra-response and inter-response consistency must be assessed separatelyclaim0.790
  Supported by low correlation between ICatom and RCatom (r=0.44)
• High persona accuracy at the atomic level does not necessarily imply strong internal coherence or reproducibilityclaim0.790
  Supported by moderate inter-metric correlations showing orthogonality of three proposed metrics
• Does the model internally maintain a form of 'consistency score' or probability mass over coherent reasoning trajectories, and how is this score modulated during reflection?question0.777
  Promising future research direction about the internal mechanism of error detection.
• Personas matter for LLM individuation because they exhibit stable beliefs, values and traits and provide a new class of individuation targetsclaim0.753
  Central thesis of the paper's second contribution connecting persona research to the individuation problem
