The Effect of Social Integration on Self-rated Health for Elderly Japanese People: A Longitudinal Study
Bibliographic record
Abstract
The current study used the 1999 wave of the Nihon University Japanese Longitudinal Study of Aging to measure intrafamilial and extrafamilial social integration scores for people aged 65-plus, and their self-ranked health reported in follow-up interviews in 2001. An innovation was the usage of ordinal logit regressions of this ordinally-measured dependent variable on the two dimensions of social integration. Higher scores on each dimension of social integration in 1999 predicted more favorable rankings on self-rated health scores in 2001. The five conclusions of this study are: (1) the relationship between social integration and self-rated health did not vanish during the “lost decade” of the 1990s; (2) the relationship is causal; (3) both intrafamilial and extrafamilial dimensions of social integration cause more favorable rankings of self-perceived health; (4) extrafamilial roles have a stronger effect than intrafamilial roles, and (5) the roleenhancement perspective is more useful than the role-strain perspective in understanding the relationship of social integration to health.

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.
