Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

There has been considerable debate in the UK in recent years about the propriety of using various forms of ‘involuntary out-patient treatment’ for some individuals with serious mental illness (Eastman, 1995; Dyre, 1998; Burns, 1999; Moncrieff & Smyth, 1999; Sugarman, 1999). While most jurisdictions in the US have statutes that support involuntary out-patient treatment (Torrey & Kaplan, 1995), its use remains controversial (Slobogin, 1994; Diamond, 1995; Torrey, 1997). Involuntary outpatient treatment was originally proposed as a solution to the ‘revolving door syndrome’ (Geller, 1996). It has also been recognised, however, that it may provide a solution to the clinical and ethical dilemmas of allowing individuals who are incapable of making treatment decisions to discontinue treatment, with predictable deterioration to the point where they may harm themselves or others (Geller, 1990). This paper provides a review of controlled studies that have examined whether involuntary treatment in the community is effective.

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.
