De la nutrition des pauvres malades : L'histoire du Montreal Diet Dispensary de 1910 à 1940
Bibliographic record
Abstract
For reformers involved in the public health movement at the end of the nineteenth century, education of the public, particularly the poor and immigrant populations, in day-to-day cleanliness and better nutrition, clothing, and housing would contribute to transforming the country from colony to prosperous nation, with a larger population better integrated into a new Canadian national identity. In Montreal, the Montreal Diet Dispensary, founded by a number of anglo-protestant women volunteers in the interest of helping those who were ill and living in poverty, became a practical laboratory for social action and intervention, inspired by a maternalist ideal. This effort developed in three stages, as the women put in place charitable structures through which those who were ill and in poverty were to be identified and selected, then diagnosed by new female professionals (social workers, dieticians, and nurses), and finally made responsible as individuals in charge of their own health through the promotion of public health. A study of the MDD reveals the definitive role of these women —philanthropists, volunteers, professionals, and those who received services —in constructing a field of activity, intervention, and service that today would be considered a mixed social economy and that was a powerful lever in evoking state and public intervention in this field.

How this classification was reachedexpand
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 itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; both teacher heads agree on what is shown here.
