Abstract
Suicidology is at a crossroads, the crux of which came into plain view recently when Hjelmeland/Knizek's critique of mainstream suicidology was followed by two ardent essays defending suicidology as it currently exists. We stake out a middle-way approach leveraging sociology's unique disciplinary perspective to bridge the two sides to construct a robust transdisciplinary toolbox that helps suicidology advance as science and improve how we study suicide and, therefore, what we know. The essay first examines the underlying structural and cultural reasons for the talking past each other, before turning towards our own understanding of science, methods, and the study of suicide.

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 it
