This limits generalization, as personality itself is better understood as theory-invariant, emerging from stable psychological patterns that should manifest consistently across different frameworks, while existing annotations reflect only partial and sometimes inconsistent views of the same latent traits. In this work, we introduce JAM ((J)udge for (A)daptive (M)etric-Alignment), a theory-agnostic framework that shifts learning from adapting to predefined personality theories toward discovering unified latent“pseudo-facets” that capture shared psychological structure. Rather than constraining the model to any personality taxonomy during training or inference, the framework learns generalizable psychological representations and can infer an individual’s latent psychological profile directly from the textual samples, without requiring theory-specific labels. JAM achieves this through an Attention-Pooled Graph Prototypical Network that learns structured representations via clustering in embedding space, together with a Cross-Theory Harmonization (CTH) approach that integrates (i) Human-Guided Linkage and (ii) MachineInduced Consensus to unify heterogeneous datasets without relying on predefined labels. To further improve robustness and data quality, we incorporate an LLM-as-a-Judge mechanism operating in two configurations, (i) LLM-before-the-loop and (ii) LLM-in-the-loop which identifies ambiguous, mislabeled, and boundary samples to guide adaptive metric learning. Experiments on Essays and Kaggle personality datasets show that JAM improves cross-framework generalization and performance, establishing a strong step toward theory-agnostic personality inference and supporting low-resource personality theories.

INTRODUCTION Personality recognition has become increasingly important, especially in recommendation systems [1] . By understanding  \nuser personalities, these systems can provide personalized suggestions, enhancing user satisfaction and trust. Understanding user personality is crucial for delivering a superior user experience, making this an important area of study [2] . By tailoring interactions and recommendations to individual personality traits, AI systems and robots can achieve higher levels of personalization, leading to increased user satisfaction and trust
