“THE HOUSING SITUATION IS HARDER FOR NATIVES:” AN ECOLOGICAL EXAMINATION OF HOUSING ISSUES FOR OLDER INDIGENOUS ADULTS1
Bibliographic record
Abstract
The rapidly growing older Indigenous adult population in Canada is creating an increasing need for housing and other services. In this study, we examined the characteristics of older Indigenous adults in Atlantic Canada, their current housing situations, and their housing needs from an ecological perspective. A total of 25 older Indigenous adults participated in focus groups. Our results highlight that the ecological model is useful in identifying various types of housing issues that exist and supports that are needed to meet the various individual, interpersonal, environmental, and cultural needs of older Indigenous adults. Many salient issues relevant to older Indigenous adults are located at the macrosystem level of the model. Additional resources should be made available to assist older Indigenous adults to remain living in their homes, to maintain and modify their homes, and to be contributing members of their communities. For those who wish to relocate, additional models of housing need to be made available that are designed to meet the diverse physical, social, and cultural needs of older Indigenous adults.

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.
