Correctional and forensic contexts of d/Deaf persons: implications for assessment and treatment
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Although research suggests that the d/Deaf individuals are overrepresented among forensic populations and unique challenges arise when working with such clients, there is a relative dearth of research examining the forensic assessment and treatment of d/Deaf individuals. Because the barriers and challenges faced by d/Deaf persons can lead to diminished efficacy of standard methods of forensic assessment and treatment, this paper aims to summarize the extant literature and highlight the implications and considerations for delivery of services as per the risk-need-responsivity model. Research findings suggest that special attention should be paid to issues surrounding language and literacy and appropriate accommodations made to ensure that d/Deaf individuals are not excluded from programming which addresses mental health and risk-relevant concerns. Recommendations to improve delivery of forensic assessment and treatment services to d/Deaf clients are provided.

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.
