MET: Theory-grounded multilingual moral reasoning with cultural adaptation and self-distillation

Researchers introduce three contributions to address gaps in multilingual moral reasoning for LLMs: MCLASH, a culturally situated multilingual moral decision-making benchmark; MET, a two-step prompting method grounded in psychological and philosophical moral theory; and MET-D, a self-distillation training variant requiring no external supervision. MET-D improves macro-F1 by an average of 3.71 points on MCLASH and 4.23 on MMoralExceptQA across Qwen3-4B, Qwen3-8B, and Gemma3-4B, with a peak gain of 12.94 points for Malay on Qwen3-8B. The work also finds that native-language reasoning increases by 62 points on average and that beneficial moral grounds differ systematically across cultures.
