Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

The approach to adolescence (8–12 years of age) is a transitional and sensitive time in all areas of development including neurobiological, emotional, social, moral and spiritual. However, little is known about the complex interactions between the social and cognitive factors related to adolescents’ beliefs and attitudes towards spirituality and gratitude. This study examined emerging adolescents’ perceptions of spirit, mind, emotion, and behaviour (N = 84, 12–14.18 years, M = 12.8, SD = 5.454 months) as part of a larger longitudinal study on social cognition and well-being in Canadian youth. Hierarchical multiple regressions revealed that high levels of spiritual well-being and perceptions of spiritual lives were positive predictors of high levels of gratitude and happiness (e.g. sense of abundance and appreciation for others). Implications for positive youth development and spiritual health are discussed.

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. 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.
