Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

International students may experience many stressors when adjusting to their new environment. The Physical Activity and Wellness Series was an integrated wellness and physical activity program aimed at improving international students’ physical activity participation, self-efficacy, coping and social belonging, and reducing stress. Four sessions of the 8–10 week program were evaluated with N = 45 international students. Participants completed surveys at the beginning and end of the program, and a focus group following each session. Measures included self-efficacy for physical activity, social self-efficacy, coping self-efficacy, stress, social belonging, and physical activity. Focus groups assessed participant experiences including expectations, barriers, and facilitators. Most of the mean values trended in the expected direction (higher self-efficacy and physical activity, lower stress and social isolation) and focus group themes included mental and physical health, social connections, and Canadian culture. Combining mental wellness and physical activity in a weekly program resulted in positive social wellness outcomes for international students.

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.
