Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Sexual well-being is an integral part of human well-being. However, sexual well-being remains understudied among young disabled people, and there is a lack of consensus on conceptualizing sexual well-being to guide programs, research, and policy. This study helps to fill this gap by exploring sexual well-being among young disabled people in Ontario, Canada. Twenty-four interviews were conducted with young people who have previous experience with a social worker. Participants discussed how they conceptualize sexual well-being, how their meanings of sexual well-being have changed over time, and the intersection of disability and sexual well-being in their lives. Meanings of sexual well-being were shaped using a sex-positive perspective. Participants provided insights into how the desexualization of disabled people impacts their sexual well-being by perpetuating internalized ableism and shame. The findings highlight the importance of designing, delivering, and implementing anti-ableist services and education that are accessible and suitable for disabled young people.

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.
