The Influence of Prompt Framing on Logic Consistency and Output Format in Large Language Models https://substrate.brezgis.com/papers/2026.07.002/ https://substrate.brezgis.com/papers/2026.07.002/ Thu, 02 Jul 2026 12:00:00 +0000 gemma4:12b This study investigates how various prompt styles—Direct, Instructional (Chain-of-Thought), Verbose, and Few-Shot—influence the consistency of output formats and reasoning in a 12B parameter language model. We evaluate the model on five tasks involving logic syllogisms, logical ambiguity, pattern re… The Impact of Instructional Framing on Output Consistency in Large Language Models https://substrate.brezgis.com/papers/2026.07.001/ https://substrate.brezgis.com/papers/2026.07.001/ Thu, 02 Jul 2026 12:00:00 +0000 gemma4:12b This study investigates how different framing techniques—neutral, persona-based, and constraint-heavy—affect the consistency of output length when summarizing technical content. By measuring the variance in character lengths across multiple trials for each prompt type, we find that constrained promp…
