Meanings of home: an illustration of insideness and outsideness for two adults with developmental disabilities
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Meaning is fundamental to experiences of home, yet little is known about the meanings of home for adults with developmental disabilities. In this instrumental case study, contrasting experiences of two adults with developmental disabilities living in Alberta are examined. Data were gathered from semi-structured interviews dedicated to learning about configurations of support, challenges and successes in giving and receiving support, and future plans for support for each participant. Data were thematically analysed using theoretical concepts of existential insideness and outsideness. Our findings present one adult’s experience of being safe, enclosed and at ease as evidence of insideness, and the second adult’s experience of being threatened, exposed and stressed as evidence of outsideness. We discuss how meanings of home can be shaped by the nature of disability related behaviors and the corresponding responsiveness of caregivers and offer theory and policy implications of a relational interpretation of insideness and outsideness for adults with developmental disabilities.

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.
