Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

This article mobilizes the Job Demands-Resource (JD-R) model and draws on data from a longitudinal study of Saskatchewan school administrators’ work and wellbeing to situate and trouble the enduring nature of high job demands, low job resources, and stress for incumbents in this province. Our findings point to serious implications of continued inattention to issues of stress, with school administrators either retiring from, leaving, or expressing their desire to leave, the role. We position this reality as a crisis not just in Saskatchewan school administration but as a more widespread, urgent equity issue that requires urgent attention before burnout becomes more widespread among school administrators.

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.

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.
