Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Throughout this school year, junior level social work students have worked in partnership with various Mental Health Stakeholders and Agencies across Utah to develop and conduct a general public, statewide survey examining the knowledge, attitudes, and experiences related to mental health. Specifically, we examine how perceived barriers to mental health access and help-seeking might vary by gender. Research shows men and women respond to mental health concerns differently. Women are more likely to seek help from a mental health professional than men (Rhodes, Goering, To, & Williams, 2002). According to Slaunwhite (2015), women are more likely to cite a lack of childcare or transportation as keeping them from seeking help, while men tend to be kept away from seeking help by their perceptions of the usefulness of such services. This study augments the literature by examining these issues in a Utah context. Surveys were administered door-to-door in Logan, Brigham City, Price, Tooele, and Blanding, as well as online through social media and community and religious organization outreach throughout the state. The final sample size will consist of approximately 2,000 Utah residents aged 18 or older. The data from this study will be analyzed using SPSS statistical software. This presentation will examine and analyze how help-seeking behaviors and perceived barriers to accessing mental health services in Utah are affected by gender, and will propose ways in which this information can be used to inform mental health agencies throughout the state.

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.
