Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

This article both analyzes the differences between Americans and Canadians with respect to their knowledge of NAFTA and their assessment of its benefits and tests models to assess what types of variables drive such knowledge and assessments. These variables include level of identification with the continent, acceptance of national disintegration, opinions about managing sovereignty, socioeconomic and demographic variables, and an indicator of political party spectrum preferences. Some of the more noteworthy simple findings are that Americans and Canadians differ in their knowledge of NAFTA, their assessment of its benefits, level of continental identification, acceptance of national disintegration, and the ways in which they approach the management of sovereignty. At a more complex level, multivariate models for the two countries show that assessments and knowledge of NAFTA are driven by different variables or by the same variables but in different directions. This has implications for the future evolution of continental policy.

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.
