Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

The present thesis examined the relation between socio-political ideologies and punitive attitudes towards different types of offences across two samples of undergraduate students. Using data from Sample 1, the structure of 34 offences based on severity of punishment ratings was evaluated. Findings indicated that attitudes grouped together in psychologically meaningful ways. Specifically, offences fell into four categories defined by anti-establishment offences, economically driven offences, sexual offences, and homicidal offences. Using Sample 2 data, confirmatory factor analyses confirmed the structure of punitive ratings. Applying Duckitt’s (2001) Dual-Process Motivational Model, findings showed partial support for the differential effects hypothesis: RWA and SDO related to punitive attitudes towards different offences. Additionally, there was partial support for the differential mediation hypothesis: whereas the relation between RWA and punitive attitudes was mediated by collective security restoration as a symbolic motive for punishment, the relation between SDO and punitive attitudes was mediated by status and power restoration.

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.
