Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Abstract If a shared set of ideas regulated the external limits of women’s labor force participation, individual household needs influenced the shifting labor market in any particular area or time. A variety of factors pulled and pushed women into the work force, and individual women manipulated and structured their lives in direct response to their own reference groups as well as in dim recognition of a larger social ideology. Applied to the period up to the Civil War, a phrase like “women in the labor force” conjures up a reasonably homogenous group. Although appropriate nods must be given to incoming Irish, French Canadian and German immigrants, the phrase reflects a wage-earning population that consisted primarily of young women of Anglo-Saxon descent, largely located in New England. After the Civil War, no mere acknowledgment of diversity will do. Ethnic and racial distinctions are at the heart of the industrial labor force. Before the Civil War, women divided themselves into those who did and those who did not leave their homes to engage in wage labor. After the war, daughters of impoverished southern farmers took their places in the urban labor force, as did black women.

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.
