Abstract
This article describes the experiences of men living in deep poverty regarding their decision not to seek out health and social services in moments of crisis, even when they recognized needing help. It presents results from a qualitative research project done in collaboration with a community center in a disadvantaged neighborhood of Montreal, Canada. It was designed to increase understanding of men's experiences of poverty and the role played by health and social services in their lives. Data were collected through 80 days of participant observation, 22 semi-directed interviews, and six group discussions with men living in poverty. The results show that these men are reluctant to use health and social services for three main reasons: 1) the nature of their problems; 2) their difficulty in seeking help; 3) the nature of services offered. The paper concludes with implications of the findings for future research and interventions.

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
