Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Since the late 1980s, the body has been a central aspect of sport sociological analysis. Examinations of the sporting body have evolved through several theoretical traditions with normalization as the dominant theme for sociologists of sport. For example, inspired by the work of Norbert Elias, several sport sociologists have looked at how the (male) sporting body has become more civilized when molded through different figurations of power over time. This has evolved into further process sociological examinations of the inter‐relationships between the body, power, and identity construction. From a critical cultural studies’ perspective, some scholars have examined how the body has been shaped by the ideological construction of sport and by the dominant groups that maintain the current structure of sport. In addition, researchers using this approach have drawn attention to how different bodily identities – such as gendered bodies, lesbian/gay bodies, disabled bodies, ethnic bodies, and aging bodies – have been constructed within commercialized, globalized sport. More sophisticated theoretical applications such as critical race theory, intersectionality theory, and critical masculinity theory have also emerged to inform the analysis of identity construction as bodily representation.

Teacher imitation

Not 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.
