Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

We report the results of a survey of college employees who are eligible for their institution’s 403(b) plan. We evaluate each employee’s “propensity to plan, ” which is found to be driven by a single psychological factor. Pension contributions are positively correlated with the propensity to plan. Other demographic attributes such as gender, marital status, age, and salary also matter. Surprisingly, men saved less than women did. We also created a subjective risk-tolerance score for each participant, and conclude that those with a higher propensity to plan are more risk tolerant. Risk taking is positively associated with income, and (surprisingly) negatively associated with age. © 2007 Academy of

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.
