Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Access to affordable housing and transportation are social determinants of health (SDH). Furthermore, lack of access to efficient and cost-effective public transportation can add hours to the workday, increase exposure to environmental pollutants, and reduce access to healthcare, employment and educational opportunities. Empirical evidence suggests that people have mutually reinforcing effects of precarious, low quality, inaccessible, and/or adequate housing and transportation that create vulnerable situations impacting people’s work, home life, and leisure time. In this study, qualitative data was generated from in-depth, semi-structured interviews with healthcare workers from a residential long-term care organization located in an urbanized region with both public transportation and socialized housing programs. The data reveal that precarious housing and transportation situations were ubiquitous challenging issues among a diverse group of healthcare workers, which demonstrates the need to take into account the realities of the participants’ circumstances, identify potential public health interventions, and advocate for policy change.

Fetched live from OpenAlex and de-inverted. Abstracts are not stored in this database: the inverted indexes are 8.6 GB of the frame’s 9.3 GB of text, and the host has 13 GB free.

Full frame distilled prediction

Teacher imitation

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.
