Locating and Steering Refusal Beyond Attention

This paper investigates mechanisms by which large language models refuse certain requests, finding that refusal behaviors extend beyond attention mechanisms to involve broader model components. The research presents techniques for locating and steering these refusal mechanisms, with implications for understanding model safety and control.
