I found that the distilled small model deepseek-ai/DeepSeek-R1-Distill-Qwen-1.5B:

  1. Tends to frequently output words like wait and alternatively.
  2. Struggles to follow the <think></think> <answer></answer> format.

A possible reason could be that distilling a small model from a large model might cause it to lose its ability to follow specific formats.

Therefore, I switched to Qwen/Qwen2.5-1.5B-Instruct and found that it adheres to the format well. The comparison of their format rewards is shown below—hope this helps!
