Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Abstract Socioeconomic status (SES) is a complex construct that is commonly used to understand mental health inequalities. SES refers to the social relations that determine what structural locations, individuals, or groups hold within society, which in turn influence the exposures, resources, and susceptibilities that produce mental health inequalities. The association between SES and mental health is one of the most firmly established patterns in psychiatric epidemiology – the most privileged and deprived tend to experience the best and worst mental health outcomes, respectively. Three major sociological traditions are relevant to understanding the causal processes through which SES determines the likelihood of developing a mental health disorder. The first tradition conceptualizes SES in terms of social stratification or the ranking of individuals into groups based on shared socioeconomic conditions. The second uses a neo‐Weberian perspective and defines SES as being determined by social closure and opportunity hoarding or the processes through which privileged groups restrict access to economic resources and opportunities while excluding others. The third reflects a neo‐Marxist approach and identifies SES with domination and exploitation or the ability of owners of productive resources to control and benefit from the labor of workers.

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.
