Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

The premise of this treatise is that moral behaviour is determined not by moral reasoning alone but more directly by conscience; conscience bridges the judgment/action gap. Given this, the notion of conscience needs to be reintroduced into the vocabulary of moral development and therefore into the curriculum of moral education. By education, I am not limiting myself to an understanding of the formal education system as found in publicly funded schools. The evidence is clear that conscience formation, as with other developmental paths, begins in early infancy with much of the formation established by school age. This is not to say, however, that moral formation does not continue after age five and cannot be refined, strengthened, advanced, or even changed. Strong normation begins in early childhood, but needs reinforcement and revision as the child's cognitive capacity and environment expand. With publicly funded education well established in the Western ethos, and with the movement towards accessibility to day-care growing, educational institutions remain a primary opportunity for establishing strong normative communities for our children. These keywords were added by machine and not by the authors. This process is experimental and the keywords may be updated as the learning algorithm improves.

Fetched live from OpenAlex and de-inverted. Abstracts are not stored in this database: the inverted indexes are 8.6 GB of the frame’s 9.3 GB of text, and the host has 13 GB free.

Not 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.
