Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

In the Spring of 2020, the COVID-19 pandemic transformed dwellings worldwide into focal points of daily life. This mixed-methods study examines how women in various residential situations adapted when faced with pandemic challenges and how their adaptations influenced the meanings of home and mental health. A pool of 538 working mothers was identified from Quebec’s MAVIPAN repeated measures survey to test if their residential situations, marked by their multiple social roles as mothers, workers, wives, or teachers, and various housing conditions, were associated with mental health and their meanings of home. Four profiles of residential situations were identified through multiple factor analysis (MFA), and 33 women belonging to these profiles were interviewed. Quantitative explorations and ChatGPT-4-assisted thematic analysis revealed conditional associations linking vulnerable residential situations to adaptation difficulties, low mental health scores, and negative feelings toward home, applying to women in blended or single-parent families, in small dwellings, or self-employed.

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.
