The incidence of marital breakdown is becoming alarming and taking its toll on the development of youths in Nigeria. This study investigated marital breakdown and socio-emotional development of adolescents in Ibadan Metropolis, Oyo State. Correlational research design was adopted for this study.

The validity of the instrument was done by experts in the Departments of Psychology and Counsellor Education, University of Ilorin, Nigeria. The reliability of the same was established using test re-test reliability method and correlation coefficients of 0.71 respectively was obtained. The descriptive data were analyzed using mean while the hypothesis was analyzed using Pearson Product Moment Correlation at 0.05 level of significance. Result showed that the indices of marital breakdown is manifested in spouses having different ideas on issues, insulting each other, frequent fighting, and doing things separately among others. The indices of socio-emotional development (which is in this case is poor) are loneliness, depression, inability to accept feelings from others, feelings of hatred towards oneself, feelings of inferiority complex and feelings of hatred towards parents among others.

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.
