Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Self-disclosure is a psychosocial process in which children carefully decide who, what, and how they tell others about their illness. Unfortunately, there is very little known about how children disclose their cancer diagnosis to their peers. For this reason, this study utilized a qualitative secondary analysis approach to investigate whether and how children disclose their illness to peers at camp. A thematic analysis was undertaken to analyze 21 interviews completed by children who experienced cancer and were from two summer residential camps in Ontario. This resulted in four themes including talking about cancer, thinking about cancer, attitude towards illness, and social environment and relationships. The findings affirm that illness disclosure is extremely complex and has several contributing factors. Further research in the area of disclosure among children with cancer is encouraged, as it can assist in the development of support and interventions for children engaging in numerous types of disclosure.

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.
