Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Abstract Possessions are central to our sense of self. For better or for worse, our possessions help to tangibilize our past, our present, and perhaps our future. They may even provide a type of immortality when they remain attached to our identity after our death. Shallow materialism has been found to be harmful, but there is another sense in which our treasured possessions provide a focus of attachment in an age of otherwise disposable consumption. Possessions also provide a sense of stability and continuity in our lives. And our relationship with possessions is seldom just a person–thing relationship, but rather a person–thing–person relationship as they connect us to, remind us of, and announce something about us to various other people in our lives. This article also addresses various special meanings of possession, including coproduction, brand tribes and brand images, counterfeits, cool objects, shared possessions, and possessions as gifts.

Fetched live from OpenAlex and de-inverted. Abstracts are not stored in this database: the inverted indexes are 8.6 GB of the frame’s 9.3 GB of text, and the host has 13 GB free.

Full frame distilled prediction

Teacher imitation

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model 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.
