Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Dementia Friendly initiatives are emerging around the world and many of them use a symbol or a brand to promote their activities. Some dementia advocates have highlighted the need for a Dementia Friendly symbol that has global recognition. The World Young Leader in Dementia (WYLD) have completed a scoping review of Dementia Friendly symbols currently in use around the world and collected attitudes towards the concept of developing a global Dementia Friendly symbol. Survey responses were received from 21 representatives of 16 countries, 15 of which have at least one Dementia Friendly initiative in place. A wide range of symbols are already in use. The concept of “not forgetting” can be found in symbols using the forget-me-know flower, the elephant and a knot. Three main colour groups are represented: orange (mostly in Asian nations), purple, (mostly in North America) and the blue/yellow combination (forget-me-not). No survey responders rejected the idea of a global Dementia Friendly symbol. Fewer people favoured a global symbol (29%) than a global theme or element (67%), i.e. a colour, logo or design that can be incorporated into existing symbols or adapted for different regions. A second consultation in April 2016 gave an opposite view, with 65% of responders favouring a global symbol and 28% favouring a global element or theme. A key reason for this difference could be a separation of views between nations that already have a well-established symbol and those that do not. Further results from WYLD’s scoping review will be presented.

Not 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.
