Abstract
Kralik D. The quest for ordinariness: transition experienced by midlife women living with chronic illness. J Adv Nurs2002 ; 39 : 146 –54 [OpenUrl][1][CrossRef][2][PubMed][3][Web of Science][4] QUESTION: What is the meaning of living with chronic illness for midlife women? A feminist participatory research design. No fixed setting because of data collection method (email and letter writing). 81 women aged 30–50 years (mean age 44 y) who identified themselves as living with adult onset chronic illness. Women were from Australia, New Zealand, Samoa, North America, and the United Kingdom. Through email and letter writing spanning 12 months, women told their stories about their experiences of living with chronic illness. The frequency of correspondence varied at the discretion of each participant. Correspondence data from participants were thematically analysed. A subset of engaged participants was actively involved in developing constructs and themes by offering validation, clarification, and interpretation. 2 major themes emerged: extraordinariness , which represented the phase of turmoil and distress … [1]: {openurl}?query=rft.jtitle%253DJournal%2Bof%2Badvanced%2Bnursing%26rft.stitle%253DJ%2BAdv%2BNurs%26rft.aulast%253DKralik%26rft.auinit1%253DD.%26rft.volume%253D39%26rft.issue%253D2%26rft.spage%253D146%26rft.epage%253D154%26rft.atitle%253DThe%2Bquest%2Bfor%2Bordinariness%253A%2Btransition%2Bexperienced%2Bby%2Bmidlife%2Bwomen%2Bliving%2Bwith%2Bchronic%2Billness.%26rft_id%253Dinfo%253Adoi%252F10.1046%252Fj.1365-2648.2000.02254.x%26rft_id%253Dinfo%253Apmid%252F12100658%26rft.genre%253Darticle%26rft_val_fmt%253Dinfo%253Aofi%252Ffmt%253Akev%253Amtx%253Ajournal%26ctx_ver%253DZ39.88-2004%26url_ver%253DZ39.88-2004%26url_ctx_fmt%253Dinfo%253Aofi%252Ffmt%253Akev%253Amtx%253Actx [2]: /lookup/external-ref?access_num=10.1046/j.1365-2648.2000.02254.x&link_type=DOI [3]: /lookup/external-ref?access_num=12100658&link_type=MED&atom=%2Febnurs%2F6%2F2%2F63.atom [4]: /lookup/external-ref?access_num=000176526300010&link_type=ISI

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot 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.
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; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
