Abstract
This paper reports findings from police interviews regarding understandings of Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorder (FASD) including the challenges this presents at the front line. The project investigates police perceptions, as individuals with FASD can have disproportionate contact with justice systems. Inconsistent with expectations, officers expressed understandings of FASD. Police reported the need for more training or information for when they encounter individuals with FASD. Practice-oriented solutions, including training developed and delivered by experienced officers, is posited to respond to unmet needs. The findings offer new insight into officer perceptions that has practical implications for front-line training and practice. To date there is limited research on how police understand FASD. This project helps fill the gap. The research has value beyond discussions of FASD. Similar to the challenges of working with persons with mental illness, there is a need for innovative front-line approaches to better address divergent client needs.

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
