Methodology: Neuroscience

What it measures

Tests neuroscience knowledge and understanding, including brain structure, neural processes, cognitive neuroscience, and neurological systems. Queries evaluate understanding of how the nervous system works.

Scoring & Criteria

Returns score 1.0 if the extracted answer exactly matches the expected answer letter (after normalization), otherwise 0.0. The system prompt requests answers in `<answer>X</answer>` format where X is a letter from the provided choices (A, B, C, D, etc.). The grader normalizes for models that include the full choice text instead of just the letter, or that violate the answer tag format from the system prompt. Only one answer is correct.

Evaluation Type: Multiple Choice

Grades multiple choice responses by exact string matching with normalization.
