Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Abstract A review of social work's early history reveals a gradual struggle to develop a unifying professional identity. This process has been influenced by numerous factors, but best evidenced by the lasting impact of the Flexner paper, delivered at the Conference of Charities and Corrections in Baltimore in 1915. The paper challenged the professional status of social work, and is still referred to in current literature about the status and identity of the social work profession. This lasting uncertainty about social work's identity is reviewed from the perspective of Lacanian analytic theory. Jacques Lacan, a European analyst, was an influential and controversial figure in the field of psychoanalysis during the mid-twentieth century. Lacan's theory of the Mirror Stage and the Name of the Father are used to provide insight and consideration of social work's protracted identity crisis.

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.
