Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

In this article, the attitudes, needs and priorities of adolescents in family planning, as articulated by them during focus group discussions, are presented. Findings indicate that: (a) Ugandan adolescents face numerous barriers to accessing family planning information and services; (b) they hold an alarming number of misconceptions about modern contraceptives; (c) they lack reliable, trusted and non-judgemental sources of information, privacy and confidentiality during family planning counselling, and (d) they don't know about contraceptive services available from the community-based distributors. Suggestions are provided on how community-based distributors could improve their outreach to adolescents and provide youth-friendly family planning services.

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.

Not 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.
