Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

In this applied research project, the authors conducted qualitative, open-ended interviews with senior immigrant women to explore their experience during the COVID-19 pandemic. Research questions were: How did this population cope during the pandemic? What were their needs (unmet and fulfilled) during this time? How can community organizations who serve this population prepare for other crises not limited to the pandemic and better serve senior immigrants? This study revealed key themes and areas of hardship and gaps in services and literature which predate the pandemic. Lack of English language proficiency and technological knowledge, absence of extended family and social networks, unfamiliarity with surroundings, financial constraints coupled with health issues brought on by advanced years present extreme hardships for this population which were magnified during the pandemic. This chapter makes recommendations to the research community as well as organizations and service providers who work in resettlement services, old age homes, and education and training.

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.

Full frame distilled prediction

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.
