A Quantitative Study of Intersectionality on Social Categories, Occupational and Health-Related Factors Amongst Canadian Healthcare Workers
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Background: This thesis is a broad exploration of intersectional analyses on prevalent factors related to health outcomes, namely mental health differences, within the Canadian healthcare workforce. Purpose: This study supports a novel outlook to explore the nuanced associations between individuals and health outcomes through a quantitative intersectionality approach. Methods: Intersectional health differences across defined strata based on race, sex, and household income were observed via a MAIHDA approach. Results: Discriminatory accuracy at the individual level varied between 12.0-15.8% for the main health outcomes of interest. The strata comprising a non-racialized female with a low reported household income were among the most hazardous intersectional effects for general health, mental health, and probable depression and/or anxiety. Conclusion: This contributes to the literature on health management by foreseeing how social positions can play a role in employee well-being, examine heterogeneity within the healthcare workforce, and provide directions to enhance corporate social responsibility in healthcare organizations.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot 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.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
