Abstract
The underlying premise of narrative research within social science literature is the belief that individuals most effectively make sense of their world by (re)constructing stories. Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) is a progressive degenerative respiratory disorder that affects approximately 15% of Canadians annually. Prior to the study discussed in this article, no research had been done to understand the frightening event of an acute exacerbation episode of COPD from the perspective of patients and their family caregivers. Hence, 10 family-nurse units were interviewed during an acute exacerbation event. The participants told a number of near-death and shadow-of-death stories that describe these episodes as life changing and illustrate the centrality of these events in the participants' understanding of their chronic illness.

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
