Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

The present study used census and survey data from 1996 to 2011 to examine changes in interracial marriages in South Africa a generation after the establishment of democracy in that country. While in-group marriages appear to be the norm, they have been declining dramatically over the years, especially amongst Asian/Indians and whites, the two groups least likely to marry outside their group. In fact, the odds ratio for overall in-marriage dropped from 303 in 1996 to 95 in 2011. Increased educational attainment increases the odds that black Africans and coloureds would marry Asian/Indians and whites and vice versa. Regardless of gender and of whether education is increasing or reducing the odds of intermarriage, the effects of education are declining over time suggesting the erosion of the social class differences between the races in South Africa.

Fetched live from OpenAlex and de-inverted. Abstracts are not stored in this database: the inverted indexes are 8.6 GB of the frame’s 9.3 GB of text, and the host has 13 GB free.

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.
