Alcohol consumption during and after the Atlantic Groundfish Strategy in a Newfoundland and Labrador community affected by the cod moratorium
Bibliographic record
Abstract
During the early 1990s, the collapse of the northern cod stocks resulted in the mass unemployment and loss of income of tens of thousands of Newfoundlanders and Labradoreans. During the early years of the moratorium, individuals who were directly impacted by the collapse of the fishery were receiving income support through The Atlantic Groundfish Strategy (TAGS). The TAGS program ended in 1998, while the moratorium on the northern cod stocks continued. -- The continuation of the moratorium and the discontinuation of the TAGS program means that individuals who have been highly impacted by the cod moratorium may be more financially strained, and subsequently may be more stressed now than they were during the time when TAGS was in place. The misuse of alcohol has been linked with low income and stress, among other factors, and has been shown to have negative health consequences. The purpose of this study was to assess how the consumption of alcohol among drinkers and among specific groups of high-risk drinkers changed from the time when TAGS was in place to the time after the TAGS program had ended. The study included a random sample of 1352 persons in the Bonavista Headland area of Newfoundland and Labrador, of which 800 were drinkers. -- The study found that alcohol consumption among drinkers had decreased from the time when TAGS was in place to the time after TAGS was discontinued. Further, alcohol consumption had decreased among drinkers of low-income households, males and unemployed drinkers. Alcohol consumption had not changed among low-income individual drinkers, drinkers who were single, and drinkers who perceived themselves as stressed.

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.
