I Get by With a Little Help From My Friends: The Impact of a Gender-Tailored Group Mentoring Program on Peer Relationships
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Adolescents face many difficulties when transitioning to high school, particularly when it comes to their social circles and maintaining friendships. As these challenges can have long-term consequences, providing support to youth during this period is essential. The YWCA Youth Education Programs (YEP) in Vancouver, BC offer group-based, after-school mentoring programs for 7 th grade students to help them navigate the transition to high school. Survey data from 668 students (233 treatment group and 435 control group) were used to examine the impacts of the YEP on friend support. Multilevel regression models show that the YEP is effective at improving perceptions of friend support in the long term. More research is needed to explore potential gender differences in the experience of supportive friendships after youth transition to high school, as well as the impact of group-based mentoring for youth transitioning to the high school environment.

How this classification was reachedexpand
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 itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
