Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

This study aims to find out correlation between social class and the cognitive development of syntax among EFL learners of three Pakistani universities. It focuses on the debate of language being a cognitive or social phenomenon and explores the nature of relationship between the social class of the learners and their cognitive development of syntax. In doing so, it explains how language is not only a cognitive process, but also has something to do with social background of the learners. The research uses a socio-economic index to measure social class of the learners and a test to measure syntactic skills of the learners. Both are assigned equal marks. Correlational study of the scores obtained by the participant in the index and the test reveal moderately significant positive correlation between social class of the participants and their cognitive development of syntax.

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.
