Japanese and U.S. Marriage Experiences: Traditional and Non-traditional Perceptions of Family
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Structured home interviews with 99 U.S. and 60 Japanese families included a projective exercise in which families made pictures of the family. The marital relationship, as presented in that picture, was compared for the two samples. The data can be summarized with two overarching themes: similarity and tradition. A number of themes were similar for families in both cultures: the tendency to see the parents/mates as a unit, and to see them as close to each other, the greater likelihood of including grandmothers in the family (compared with grandfathers), and the pattern of sons being more likely to be closest to fathers, daughters to mothers. Traditional themes were more common in the Japanese families. Marriage appeared to be based more o n a personal relationship in the U.S., with mates seen as more similar to each other than in Japan. Father/husbands were more likely to be seen as isolated in Japan; with mother/wives depicted as more connected with children.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot 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.
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 teacher head, not a consensus.
