Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

While police are gatekeepers to the criminal justice system for intimate partner violence (IPV), women are often divided about their helpfulness. The current secondary, mixed-methods analysis examined 575 Canadian women's impressions regarding police intervention (50.3% Indigenous, 43.4% White, and 6.4% visible minority). In more than half of the cases (53.3%), the police arrested/removed their partner/ex-partner, 53% said the police "just talked to them," and 8% were also arrested. While 40% were satisfied with the police response, 21.5% thought police did not take them seriously, and 10.9% were explicit about the police not treating them well. Practice and policy implications are provided.

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.

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human 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.
