Abstract
The goal was to examine prospectively the relation of psychological factors to the outcome after in vitro fertilization (IVF) in a sample of Greek women. Previous studies investigating the relation of IVF outcome to anxiety and depression have yielded contradictory results; other psychological dimensions have not been studied. 81 women who followed an IVF program during a 6-mo. period were prospectively evaluated. Demographic and gynecological data were assessed and women completed questionnaires measuring anxiety, depression, narcissistic traits, over-dependency, self-esteem, hostility, and alexithymia. Multiple logistic regression analysis showed that successful IVF outcome correlated with more alexithymic characteristics and younger age. Correlation between alexithymia and successful IVF outcome is demonstrated. This might be explained by the "operational" nature of IVF techniques, to which alexithymic individuals would respond better.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot 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.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
