Constructing Identity: Stories of Canadian Parents Bringing up Children adopted from China- The role of heritage culture and language
Bibliographic record
Abstract
International adoption is increasing rapidly during the last two decades in Canada and United States. Canadian families with children adopted from China have been leading the statistics of the international adoption in Canada. For the last decade, it steadily made up over half of the international adoptions. Despite of the growing population of the children adopted internationally and interracially, relatively little is known about their social and cultural identity development after their arrival. The presentation will share the parents’ perspective on the meaning of heritage language and culture to the well-being of the children adopted interracially and their adopting families. Some selected literature review and some findings of interviews with the adoptive parents will be discussed. More and more Canadian parents are bringing up children adopted transracially, and over half of these children are from China. How the parents see the role of heritage culture and language playing the identity development of these children will be shared in the presentation.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
