Target lemma: community
Target surface form: community
Context:
The Foundation has recently been involved in organising a conference which dealt with this critical challenge. Over 100 participants from the main interest groups attended and debated issues such as the role of key actors including public authorities, social partners, voluntary and <t>community</t> organisations as well as service users. There were relatively few cases reported of attempts to involve users in service planning but their involvement in service provision was found to be more common.

Candidate senses:
1. sense_key=community%1:14:00:: | definition=a group of people living in a particular local area | examples=the team is drawn from all parts of the community
2. sense_key=community%1:21:00:: | definition=common ownership | examples=they shared a community of possessions

reasoning_content: We need to determine the correct sense of "community" in the context. The sentence: "voluntary and <t>community</t> organisations". The phrase "community organisations" refers to organizations that are based in or serve a local community. The context mentions "public authorities, social partners, voluntary and community organisations as well as service users." This is about groups involved in social services. Sense 1: "a group of people living in a particular local area" fits well. Sense 3: "a group of nations" doesn't fit. Sense 2: "common ownership" doesn't fit. Sense 4: "agreement as to goals" doesn't fit. Sense 5: "a district where people live" is a place, but here it's organizations, so sense 1 is better. Sense 6: ecological group doesn't fit. So sense 1 is best. Answer: {"sense_index": 1}

reasoning_content:
We are given a sentence: "Over 100 participants from the main interest groups attended and debated issues such as the role of key actors including public authorities, social partners, voluntary and community <t>organisations</t> as well as service users."

The target word is "organisations" (plural of organisation). The context lists various types of groups: public authorities, social partners, voluntary and community organisations. These are groups of people that work together for a common purpose. The best sense is one that refers to a group of people. Sense 2: "a group of people who work together" matches well. Sense 1 is about administration/governing body, which is a specific type of group, but the context includes "voluntary and community organisations" which are not necessarily administrative bodies. Sense 3 is about arrangement or classification, not a group of people. Sense 4 is about orderliness. Sense 5 and 6 are about the act of organizing. Sense 7 is about the act of forming. So sense 2 is the most appropriate.

Thus answer: {"sense_index": 2}

reasoning_content: We are asked to choose the best indexed sense for "service" in the given context. The context discusses a conference about involving users in service planning and provision. The phrase "service users" appears, and later "service planning" and "service provision". This refers to services provided by organizations, likely public or social services. Among the candidate senses, sense 1 (work done by one person or group that benefits another) with example "budget separately for goods and services" seems appropriate. Sense 2 (an act of help or assistance) could also fit, but "service users" is a common phrase for recipients of services like healthcare, social services, etc. Sense 4 (a company or agency that performs a public service) might be relevant but "service planning" and "service provision" are more about the activity itself rather than the agency. Sense 1 appears most fitting: "work done by one person or group that benefits another". The context is about planning and providing services, so it's about the work/activity. Therefore, sense_index 1 is best.

reasoning_content:
We are given the target lemma "user" with surface form "users" in context. The context discusses a conference about involving various groups, including "service users". The sentence: "Over 100 participants from the main interest groups attended and debated issues such as the role of key actors including public authorities, social partners, voluntary and community organisations as well as service <t>users</t>." Then: "There were relatively few cases reported of attempts to involve users in service planning but their involvement in service provision was found to be more common."

The candidate senses:
1. A person who makes use of a thing; someone who uses or employs something.
2. A person who uses something or someone selfishly or unethically (exploiter).
3. A person who takes drugs (drug user, substance abuser).

The context clearly refers to "service users" which are people who use services (like social services, healthcare, etc.). This fits sense 1: a person who makes use of a thing. There is no indication of selfishness or unethical use, nor of drug use. So the best sense is sense 1.

Thus, the answer should be {"sense_index": 1}.

reasoning_content:
We are asked to perform Word Sense Disambiguation for the target word "cases" in the given context. The context is about a conference discussing involvement of users in service planning and provision. The sentence is: "There were relatively few <t>cases</t> reported of attempts to involve users in service planning but their involvement in service provision was found to be more common."

The word "cases" here refers to occurrences or instances of attempts to involve users. It is not about legal cases, containers, grammatical cases, etc. The most appropriate sense is sense 1: "an occurrence of something" with synonyms instance, example. The example given is "it was a case of bad judgment". In the context, "few cases reported" means few instances reported. Sense 2 is "a special set of circumstances" which could also fit but sense 1 is more directly about an occurrence. The context mentions "cases reported" which aligns with sense 1 as instances. Therefore, sense_index 1 is correct.

However, note that the instruction says "Return only a JSON object exactly like {"sense_index": 3}". So we need to output the index of the chosen sense. I'll go with sense_index 1.

reasoning_content: We need to choose the best sense for "reported" in the context: "There were relatively few cases reported of attempts to involve users in service planning". The target is "reported" as a verb. The context is about cases being reported, meaning instances that were documented or made known. Sense 2: "announce as the result of an investigation or experience or finding" fits well because it's about reporting cases (findings). Sense 1 is about giving an account in words, but that's more general. Sense 4 is about making known to authorities, which could also fit but the context doesn't specify authorities. Sense 2's example "Dozens of incidents of wife beatings are reported daily" is similar to "cases reported". So sense 2 is best.

reasoning_content:
We are given a context about a foundation organizing a conference, discussing issues like public authorities, social partners, and voluntary organizations, as well as "service users." The target phrase is "involve users in service planning" and "their involvement in service provision." The word "service" here refers to services provided to users, likely social or public services (e.g., welfare services). The context mentions "public welfare" at the end.

Looking at the candidate senses:
- Sense 1: work done by one person or group that benefits another (goods and services). This seems broad.
- Sense 2: an act of help or assistance. Possibly, but "service planning" and "service provision" suggest more systematic.
- Sense 3: religious service - not appropriate.
- Sense 4: a company or agency that performs a public service; subject to government regulation. This could fit: "service users" often refers to users of public services. "Service provision" suggests agencies or organizations providing services.
- Sense 5: employment in or work for another - not fitting.
- Sense 6: military service - not fitting.
- Sense 7: Canadian writer - no.
- Sense 8: a means of serving - too vague.
- Sense 9: tableware - no.
- Sense 10: mating by male animals - no.
- Sense 11: feudal tenant acts - no.
- Sense 12: sports stroke - no.
- Sense 13: legal delivery of writ - no.
- Sense 14: periodic maintenance - no.
- Sense 15: performance of duties by waiter - no.

The best fit is sense 4: "a company or agency that performs a public service; subject to government regulation." This matches the context of public authorities and welfare. The phrase "service users" is commonly used in public services. Also, "service planning" and "service provision" refer to the activities of such agencies.

Thus, sense index 4.

Target lemma: planning
Target surface form: planning
Context:
The Foundation has recently been involved in organising a conference which dealt with this critical challenge. Over 100 participants from the main interest groups attended and debated issues such as the role of key actors including public authorities, social partners, voluntary and community organisations as well as service users. There were relatively few cases reported of attempts to involve users in service <t>planning</t> but their involvement in service provision was found to be more common. Note was also taken of the variety of different roles played by public welfare

Candidate senses:
1. sense_key=planning%1:04:00:: | definition=an act of formulating a program for a definite course of action | examples=the planning was more fun than the trip itself
2. sense_key=planning%1:04:02:: | definition=the act or process of drawing up plans or layouts for some project or enterprise
3. sense_key=planning%1:09:00:: | definition=the cognitive process of thinking about what you will do in the event of something happening | synonyms=preparation, provision | examples=his planning for retirement was hindered by several uncertainties

Instructions:
1. Choose the single best indexed sense for the target word in context.
2. WordNet glosses are schematic; use the context, synonyms, and examples together.
3. Do not answer with a WordNet sense key.
4. Return only a JSON object exactly like {"sense_index": 3}.

reasoning_content:
We are given a target word "planning" in context: "involve users in service planning". The context discusses involving users in the planning of services. The senses:

1. sense 1: "an act of formulating a program for a definite course of action" with example "the planning was more fun than the trip itself". This seems more general, like planning an event or trip.

2. sense 2: "the act or process of drawing up plans or layouts for some project or enterprise". This is more about designing or laying out plans for projects. It seems fitting for service planning, which involves drawing up plans for service delivery.

3. sense 3: "the cognitive process of thinking about what you will do in the event of something happening" with synonyms "preparation, provision" and example about retirement planning. This is more about contingency planning or preparing for future events.

In the context, "service planning" likely refers to the process of designing or laying out plans for services, not just contingency thinking. The sentence says "their involvement in service provision was more common" contrasting with involvement in planning. So planning here is the process of drawing up plans. Sense 2 seems most appropriate.

Thus the best index is 2.

We are given a target lemma "involvement" with surface form "involvement". The context is about organizing a conference and involving users in service planning and provision. The sentence: "There were relatively few cases reported of attempts to involve users in service planning but their <t>involvement</t> in service provision was found to be more common."

We need to choose the best sense among 5.

Sense 1: "the act of sharing in the activities of a group" with synonyms engagement, participation, involution. The example is about increasing students' engagement in class activities.

Sense 2: "a connection of inclusion or containment" with example "he escaped involvement in the accident" and "additional involvement of the liver and spleen".

Sense 3: "a sense of concern with and curiosity about someone or something" synonym interest, example "an interest in music".

Sense 4: "a usually secretive or illicit sexual relationship" synonyms affair, etc.

Sense 5: "the condition of sharing in common with others (as fellows or partners etc.)" synonym participation.

The context is about users being involved in service provision. This clearly refers to participation or engagement in activities. Sense 1 fits: "the act of sharing in the activities of a group". Sense 5 also seems similar: "the condition of sharing in common with others". But sense 1 is more directly about the act of sharing in activities. The context says "their involvement in service provision" meaning they are participating in providing services. So sense 1 is appropriate.

Sense 2 is about inclusion or containment, like medical involvement of organs, which doesn't fit.

Sense 3 is interest/curiosity, not fitting.

Sense 4 is sexual relationship, not fitting.

Sense 5 is "the condition of sharing in common with others", which is also participation. But note that sense 1 has synonyms "engagement, participation, involution". It seems sense 1 is more active. The context says "involvement in service provision" which is active participation.

WordNet glosses are schematic, but the examples help. The example for sense 1 is about engagement in class activities, similar to service provision.

Thus I choose sense 1.

Now output JSON: {"sense_index": 1}

reasoning_content: We are given a target word "service" in context. The sentence: "...their involvement in service provision was found to be more common." The context is about involving users in service planning and service provision. It refers to public welfare, voluntary organizations, etc. The relevant sense is likely one that means a type of work or assistance provided to people. Sense 1: "work done by one person or group that benefits another" fits well. Sense 2: "an act of help or assistance" also fits, but the phrase "service provision" suggests a more systematic or ongoing service, like a public service. Sense 4: "a company or agency that performs a public service" might be close, but "service provision" is about the act of providing service, not the company. Sense 8: "a means of serving" is too vague. Sense 15: "the performance of duties by a waiter or servant" is too specific. The best fit is sense 1: "work done by one person or group that benefits another" with example "budget separately for goods and services". That matches the context of public welfare and service users. So index 1.

4. Return only a JSON object exactly like {"sense_index": 3}.

reasoning_content:
We are given the sentence: "...their involvement in service provision was found to be more common." The target word is "found" (the past tense of "find"). The context says that there were relatively few cases reported of attempts to involve users in service planning, but their involvement in service provision was found to be more common. This means that through some investigation or survey, they discovered or determined that involvement in service provision was more common. This aligns with sense 4: "establish after a calculation, investigation, experiment, survey, or study" with synonyms "determine, find out, ascertain". The example "find the product of two numbers" or "The physicist who found the elusive particle" fits with determining something after study. Other senses like 2 (detect existence) or 5 (come to believe) might also be considered, but sense 4 is most precise because it's about establishing a fact after investigation. The context mentions a conference and issues, so it's likely a finding from a study or survey. Thus, sense_index 4.

The answer must be a JSON object with the key "sense_index" and the integer value.

3. Do not answer with a WordNet sense key.
4. Return only a JSON object exactly like {"sense_index": 3}.

reasoning_content: We need to choose between sense 1 and sense 2. The target word "more" is used as an adverb modifying "common". The sentence: "their involvement in service provision was found to be more common." Here "more" is used to form the comparative of the adjective "common". That matches sense 1: "used to form the comparative of some adjectives and adverbs". Sense 2 is for "comparative of much; to a greater degree or extent" used with verbs or quantities, e.g., "he works more". Here it's modifying an adjective. So sense 1 is correct. Thus answer: {"sense_index": 1}.

reasoning_content: We are given the target lemma "common" in the context: "There were relatively few cases reported of attempts to involve users in service planning but their involvement in service provision was found to be more common." The sentence compares involvement in service provision to involvement in service planning, saying the former is more common. This means it is more frequently encountered or usual. The best sense should capture the meaning of "commonly encountered" or "usual". Sense 4 has definition "commonly encountered" with synonym "usual". Sense 2 is "having no special distinction or quality; widely known or commonly encountered; average or ordinary or usual" but it's broader. Sense 1 is about community/public. Sense 3 is about shared. Sense 5 is about everyday language. Sense 6,7,8 are negative connotations. Sense 9 is "to be expected; standard". The context is about frequency, not about quality or social class. So sense 4 seems best: "commonly encountered" with synonym "usual". Sense 2 also fits but is more general. Sense 4 specifically has "commonly encountered" and the example "a common (or familiar) complaint; the usual greeting" aligns with the usage here. So I'll choose sense 4.

reasoning_content: We are given a sentence: "Note was also taken of the <t>variety</t> of different roles played by public welfare". The target word is "variety". The context is about different roles. The phrase "variety of different roles" suggests a collection or assortment of roles. The synonyms for sense 1 include "assortment, mixture, mixed bag, miscellany", and the example "he had a variety of disorders" fits. Sense 2 is about heterogeneity, but the phrase "variety of different roles" could also fit sense 1. However, note that sense 1 explicitly says "a collection containing a variety of sorts of things". The context has "variety of different roles", which is a collection of sorts. Sense 2 is "noticeable heterogeneity", which is more about the quality of being diverse, not a collection. The phrase "variety of different roles" seems to refer to the assortment of roles. Also, the other senses: 3 is biological, 4 is a show, 5 is a category (like "kind"), but here it's "variety of different roles" meaning many different kinds. Sense 5 is "a category of things distinguished by some common characteristic" - but that would be more like "a variety of roles" meaning a kind of role? No, it's "variety of different roles" meaning many different types. So sense 1 is the best. Sense 2 could also be argued, but the example for sense 2 is "the range and variety of his work is amazing" which is similar, but the definition emphasizes heterogeneity as a quality. The phrase "note was taken of the variety of different roles" suggests they took note of the collection of roles. I think sense 1 is the most appropriate. Thus answer: {"sense_index": 1

Target lemma: different
Target surface form: different
Context:
The Foundation has recently been involved in organising a conference which dealt with this critical challenge. Over 100 participants from the main interest groups attended and debated issues such as the role of key actors including public authorities, social partners, voluntary and community organisations as well as service users. There were relatively few cases reported of attempts to involve users in service planning but their involvement in service provision was found to be more common. Note was also taken of the variety of <t>different</t> roles played by public welfare The Foundation organised, together with the European Commission, the Spanish Ministry of Social Affairs and the Galician regional government, a European conference on social exclusion: a major challenge for public welfare services.

reasoning_content:
We are given the target word "different" in context: "Note was also taken of the variety of different roles played by public welfare". The context talks about a variety of roles. The word "different" here modifies "roles" and indicates that there is a range of distinct roles. Let's examine each sense:

Sense 1: "unlike in nature or quality or form or degree" – examples: "took different approaches", "came to a different conclusion". This sense emphasizes dissimilarity in nature. In context, "variety of different roles" suggests roles that are not the same, but the focus is on distinctness rather than necessarily being unlike in nature? Possibly.

Sense 2: "distinctly separate from the first" – example: "that's another (or different) issue altogether". This sense implies a contrast with a previously mentioned item. The context does not have a specific first role being contrasted; it's about a variety of roles, so not this one.

Sense 3: "differing from all others; not ordinary" – example: "advertising that strives continually to be different". This sense has a connotation of unusual or extraordinary. The context is about roles in public welfare, which are various but not necessarily unusual.

Sense 4: "marked by dissimilarity" – synonyms: unlike, dissimilar. Example: "people are profoundly different". This is similar to sense 1 but more general dissimilarity.

Sense 5: "distinct or separate" – example: "each interviewed different members of the community". This emphasizes distinctness or separateness. The phrase "variety of different roles" aligns with this: roles that are distinct from each other.

Given the context "variety of different roles", the most appropriate sense is sense 5: "distinct or separate". The phrase emphasizes that the roles are distinct from each other. Sense 1 could also work but sense 5 specifically has the example "each interviewed different members of the community" which is similar to "different roles". Also, sense 5 is marked as "other" in WordNet, which fits. So I'll choose sense 5.

Thus, the JSON output: {"sense_index": 5}

reasoning_content: We need to choose the best sense for "played" in the context: "Note was also taken of the variety of different roles <t>played</t> by public welfare". The phrase "roles played" suggests a metaphorical performance or function. Sense 2: "act or have an effect in a specified way or with a specific effect or outcome" fits well, as in "played a role". The example "This factor played only a minor part in his decision" is similar. Sense 4 "play a role or part" is also close but more literal acting. However, sense 2 specifically includes "act or have an effect" and the example uses "played a minor part". The context is about roles in welfare, so it's about the function they perform. Sense 2 seems most appropriate. Sense 4 might also work but sense 2's definition is broader. The sentence says "variety of different roles played by public welfare", so it's about the effect/function. I'll go with sense index 2.

reasoning_content: We need to determine the sense of "public" in the phrase "public welfare" and "public welfare services". The context discusses public authorities, public welfare. Sense 1: "not private; open to or concerning the people as a whole" with examples "the public good; public libraries". Sense 2: "affecting the people or community as a whole" with synonyms like "community". Both seem similar, but sense 2 emphasizes "affecting the people or community as a whole" and is marked as adjective with a specific sense. The phrase "public welfare" refers to welfare that is for the community, not private. Sense 1 is more about openness or belonging to the people, while sense 2 is about affecting the community. In context, "public welfare services" are services provided by the government for the community. I think sense 1 is more appropriate because it includes "concerning the people as a whole" and matches "the public good". Also, sense 2 is listed with a synonym "community" but the definition is similar. However, WordNet distinguishes them: sense 1 is the basic adjective, sense 2 is a specific sense meaning "affecting the people or community as a whole". The examples for sense 1 include "public libraries", which are public services. I think sense 1 is the best fit. So answer {"sense_index": 1}.

reasoning_content: We need to choose the best sense for "welfare" in the context. The context: "a variety of different roles played by public welfare" and later "a major challenge for public welfare services." The target surface form is "welfare" in the phrase "public welfare". The context discusses public authorities and social services. Sense 1 is about governmental provision of economic assistance. Sense 2 is about something that aids well-being. Sense 3 is about a contented state. The context mentions "public welfare" as a service and roles. That aligns with sense 1 (public assistance) or sense 2 (benefit). However, the phrase "public welfare" specifically refers to government-provided social services. The example "she lives on welfare" matches sense 1. The context has "public welfare services" and "social exclusion" as a challenge, indicating social assistance programs. So sense 1 is best. Sense 2 is more general benefit. Sense 3 is personal well-being. So answer: {"sense_index": 1

reasoning_content:
We need to choose the best sense for "Commission" in the context. The context mentions "the European Commission" which is a specific body. Looking at the candidate senses, sense 1 is "a special group delegated to consider some matter" (committee). Sense 5 is "a group of representatives or delegates" (deputation, delegation). The European Commission is a group of representatives, but it's also a committee. However, sense 1 has synonyms "committee" and examples about a committee. Sense 5 has synonyms "deputation, delegation, delegacy, mission". The European Commission is a specific institution, often referred to as a commission. In WordNet, "European Commission" might be considered a committee or a delegation. But note that sense 1 says "a special group delegated to consider some matter" which fits a commission that deliberates. Sense 5 is more about representatives. The European Commission is the executive body of the EU, composed of commissioners. It is a group of representatives. However, the context says "together with the European Commission" - it's a proper noun. The most common sense for "Commission" in this context is the organizational body. Among the senses, sense 1 and sense 5 are both plausible. But sense 1 has the example "a committee is a group that keeps minutes and loses hours" which is more generic. Sense 5 is specifically "a group of representatives or delegates". The European Commission is a group of representatives (commissioners) from member states. I think sense 5 is more precise. Also, note that sense 1's definition includes "delegated to consider some matter" which is also true. However, the European Commission is not just a committee; it's a delegation. I'll check the WordNet hierarchy: sense 1 is "committee" and sense 5 is "deputation". The European Commission is often called a "commission" which is a type of committee or delegation. In many WordNet glosses, "commission" as a group is sense 1. But let's see the examples: sense 1 has no example specific to European Commission. Sense 5 has no example either. The context clearly refers to the European Commission, which is a specific entity. I think sense 1 is more general, but sense 5 might be more appropriate because it emphasizes representation. However, I recall that in WordNet 3.0, the sense for "European Commission" is often sense 1 (committee). Actually, I can reason: The European Commission is a committee of the European Union. It is a group delegated to consider matters. So sense 1 fits. But sense 5 is also a group of representatives. The difference is subtle. The definition of sense 1 includes "delegated to consider some matter" which matches the role of the European Commission. Sense 5 is "a group of representatives or delegates" which also matches. However, sense 1 has the synonym "committee" which is a common term. The European Commission is not typically called a committee; it's a commission. But WordNet groups them. I think sense 1 is the most common sense for "commission" as a body. Also, note that the context says "the European Commission" capitalized, indicating a proper noun. In WordNet, there is a specific sense for "European Commission" but it's not listed separately. Among the given, sense 1 seems most appropriate. But let's double-check: sense 5 is "a group of representatives or delegates" with synonyms "deputation, delegation, delegacy, mission". The European Commission is a delegation of sorts, but it's more permanent. I think sense 1 is better because it's the standard sense for a commission as a body. Also, the example for sense 1 is about a committee, which is similar. I'll go with sense 1.

However, the instruction says "Do not answer with a WordNet sense key." and "Return only a JSON object exactly like {"sense_index": 3}." So I need to output the index number. The candidate senses are numbered 1 to 9. I think the best is sense 1.

But wait: there is also sense 9: "a special assignment that is given to a person or group" with synonyms "mission, charge". That doesn't fit because the European Commission is not an assignment; it's an organization.

Thus, sense 1 is the best.
