Despite the demonstrated potential of Large Language Models (LLMs) in diverse NLP tasks, their causal reasoning capability appears inadequate when evaluated within the context of the event causality identification (ECI) task. The ECI tasks pose significant complexity for LLMs and necessitate comprehensive causal priors for accurate identification. To improve the performance of LLMs for causal reasoning, we propose a multi-agent Decomposed reasoning framework for Event Causality Identification, designated as Dr.ECI. In the discovery stage, Dr.ECI incorporates specialized agents such as Causal Explorer and Mediator Detector, which capture implicit causality and indirect causality more effectively. In the reasoning stage, Dr.ECI introduces the agents Direct Reasoner and Indirect Reasoner, which leverage the knowledge of the generalized causal structure specific to the ECI. Extensive evaluations demonstrate the state-of-the-art performance of Dr.ECI comparing with baselines based on LLMs and supervised training. Our implementation will be open-sourced at https://github.com/DMIRLAB-Group/Dr.ECI.
