Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

A theory of systemic negligence as founding institutional liability for harm to children (abusive institutionalisation) is currently developing in Canadian courts. The courts have allowed class action certification on the basis of a common issue of systemic negligence in several recent cases. The author suggests that, through the class action for systemic negligence, the common law is filling in those conceptual gaps that had made the alternative redress system seem a more complete and appropriate response to abusive institutionalisation. Legal theories of institutional responsibility also explain the phenomenon of abusive institutionalisation, not as an unpredictable aberration but as a preventable organisational disaster.

Full frame distilled prediction

Teacher imitation

Not 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.
