Abstract
Abstract Not all of the items that have been generated will prove to be useful. This chapter discusses the criteria of a good item, such as its reading level, lack of ambiguity, asking only a single question, freedom from jargon, being worded in a positive direction, and length. Another consideration is the distribution of responses, whether all response alternatives have been used by at least some of the respondents, and when items with very low endorsement frequencies may actually be useful. It also discusses the homogeneity of the scale and the various ways of measuring it (e.g. KR-20, split-halves, and Cronbach’s alpha). Finally, it discusses when homogeneity is and is not important, and which statistical tests should not be used when homogeneity is not required.

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 itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; both teacher heads agree on what is shown here.
