AgentPersonaBench: Benchmarking Persona-Driven User Simulation
We introduce AgentPersonaBench (APB), a benchmark evaluating whether persona conditioning faithfully steers downstream agent behavior. While language models are increasingly deployed for persona-driven user simulation, existing benchmarks primarily evaluate conversational styling or self-reports rather than authentic behavioral fidelity. APB evaluates latent persona adherence one trait at a time, embedding each target trait within a complete synthetic profile without explicitly naming the trait or disclosing the test. Ground-truth adherence is verified strictly from observable actions across four interaction surfaces of increasing realism: survey, chat, web (interactive web environments),...
