Abstract
Are distinctly elevated, external, public commitments and displays of morality accompanied by distinctly elevated internal, private commitments to morality? A nationally representative U.S. dataset was used to help answer this question. Evangelical Christians (N = 411) scored higher than non-evangelicals (N = 942) on a measure of commitment to external, public displays of morality. However, the group differences in scores on a measure of internal, private commitments to morality were much smaller and were not statistically significant. Item response theory analyses indicated no measurement bias for the two groups, suggesting that the observed group difference and similarity on the measures of public and private morality commitments were real. Public and private commitments to morality are potentially independent at both the individual and group levels.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model 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.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
