Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Abstract: With the advent of management by results in public administration, the demand for indicators has increased. The notion of indicator has traditionally been quantitative; however, since the predilection for mixed methods emerged in evaluation, indicators identified as qualitative have been developed. With the ensuing confusion in the definition and use of qualitative indicators, what is the current situation? To clarify their use, this article suggests a classification for the different uses of qualitative indicators and a method for integrating this type of indicator in the evaluation process.

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.
