Abstract
Global demographic trends and the current limitations of housing options for older adults mean new housing models are needed for this diverse population. Alternative ways of living, like senior cohousing, are emerging. The purpose of this study was to examine the relationship between the home environment and occupational engagement for older adults living in a Swedish cohousing model. Using a critical realist lens and case study design, interviews were completed with eight older adult cohousing residents, as well as home observation and document analysis. Findings expand current insights about occupational engagement by revealing the importance of both individual and collective occupations and their interplay in senior cohousing. Residents’ accounts also suggest personal and occupational development in later life. Senior cohousing provides an innovative way of ‘aging-in-community’ that may be a piece of the housing solution in other western contexts, though further investigation of cultural and institutional factors is warranted.

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
