Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

ABSTRACT Using a comparative approach, we deconstruct and examine the different facets of well‐being and ill‐being of transnational grandparents whose migrant adult children and grandchildren are living in Canada. Experiences ranged from happiness and satisfaction to grandparents being severely affected and deeply suffering. Well‐being and ill‐being were shaped by the following: (1) grandparents’ perspectives and feelings about the transnational circumstances, how they processed and framed the situation; (2) their relationships with migrant family members, including the quality of interactions, communication and ability to preserve closeness; (3) how they experienced the support role they play in their families’ lives and (4) family dynamics regarding the direction and level of dependence for support within the family. The socio‐cultural, economic and migration contexts affected grandparents’ expectations, perspectives and their sense of control and capacity to give and stay connected with their migrant families. The findings underscore the interconnectedness of family members’ well‐being and ill‐being across borders.

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.
