Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Abstract: Community health centres (CHCs) have emerged as sites in which services based on a primary health care (PHC) model are delivered. In the evaluation of the newly established Northeast CHC in Edmonton, Alberta, client satisfaction was a significant part of the evaluation component on community participation. A reliable and valid tool was sought to measure the dimensions of client satisfaction appropriate for a CHC that is based on the principles of PHC. Using criteria established to assist the evaluators in choosing an appropriate tool, the Service Satisfaction Scale was selected because it was comprehensive, appropriate, and psychometrically acceptable. Refinement on the basis of client and provider input led to a revised client satisfaction tool that is currently being tested. The authors suggest that, congruent with the PHC model, a multimethod approach that incorporates focus groups and individual interviews should be employed in evaluation of client satisfaction to add useful information about client perspectives.

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.
