Abstract
Here is a list of the files contained in the replication files, along with a short description: <b>Code</b> <i>Note:</i> The scripts contain dependencies, so they should be run in the order they are listed. 1. Transcripts.R: This file contains the code to upload and format the Question Period transcripts from the House of Commons website. 2. Transcripts_Date.R: This file contains the code to upload and extract the data of meetings from the House of Commons website. 3. Perspective.R: This file contains the code to process the Question Period transcripts through the Perspective API. 4. Analysis 1.R: This file contains the code to replicate the analysis presented in the body of the paper and some of the elements in the Online Appendix. 5. Analysis 2.R: This file contains the code to replicate the analysis of the Question Period transcripts in French reported in the Online Appendix. 6. Analysis 3.R: This file contains the code to replicate Figures G2 to G5 in the Online Appendix. <b>Data</b> <i>Note:</i> These files are generated using the previous scripts. They are enclosed in replication files for comparison purposes. 1. df_Date.Rdata 2. df_English.Rdata 3. df_French.Rdata 4. df_Weekly_English.Rdata 5. df_Weekly_French.Rdata 6. df_Weekly_Language_English.Rdata 7. df_Weekly_Language_French.Rdata 8. prsp_English.Rdata 9. prsp_French.Rdata

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot 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.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
