Alexithymia and mental health: a study among college students
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Background: Alexithymia is a multi-faceted personality construct that has been associated with various clinical and psychiatric disorders like substance use disorders, eating disorders, attachment problems and stress and coping difficulties. Studies about Alexithymia are of recent origin in the Indian context and studies relating Alexithymia and mental health are scarce. Objective: To study the relationship between Alexithymia and mental health. Method: A sample of 24 male and 159 female college students completed the Toronto Alexithymia Scale (TAS-20) and General Health Questionnaire (GHQ, Goldberg, 1979). Relationships were examined using correlations. Results: The results show that there is a significant negative relationship between Alexithymia and mental health. Conclusion: The findings of the current study demonstrates the role of Alexithymia in determining the mental health of the individuals, that is, individuals with high degrees of Alexithymia are prone to have poor mental health.

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.
