Malleable Methodologies: Sculpting and Imagination in Embodied Health Research
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Health research is complex, often asking questions that have uncertain, indefinite, or inarticulate answers. Embodied health research, which incorporates subjectivity and social relationships centered on the body, adds further complexity. There exist several calls for embodied research methodology, and it is now important to explore aligning methods and further develop embodied health research methodology. Using artistic and interview data from the Beyond the Present: Risk and Body Stigma in Public Health project, this article argues that imagination is a useful methodology and sculpting a fruitful method to draw out health stories. Sculpting and imagination allow material and conceptual malleability and are valuable in addressing complexity and uncertainty in critical qualitative health research.

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.
