Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Utilising a routine activity and lifestyle theory framework, this study examines victimisation over time of a localised homeless population with mental health conditions that was part of a 24 month Housing First (HF) At Home-Chez Soi project in the Canadian Prairie City. Negative binomial regression equations to account for severe skews in the victimisation data were estimated at baseline, 12 months and 24 months. In most cases, net of demographic and risky lifestyle controls, at 12 and 24 months from baseline there was an inverse relationship between housing stability and victimisation, and as mental illness became more serious, so did victimisation rates. Serious mental illness was the most consistent and strongest predictor of victimisation, while stable housing effects were weak and sometimes nil. At baseline and 12 months, HF cases showed nil or opposite effects to the Treatment as Usual group, but produced lower victimisation rates at 24 months.

Not 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.
