Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

The purpose of this research is to examine the cultural identity construction of Chinese immigrants and their children in Winnipeg, Manitoba. It explores how organizations such as Chinese schools, which originated as language schools and have emerged as cultural sites and community centers for Chinese immigrants, have played a role in the construction of bicultural identity. The fieldwork was conducted at a Chinese school located in Winnipeg, and the field data for this research project was collected through one-on-one interviews, life histories and participant observation. Based on the field research, this study contributes some new understandings of Chinese immigrants' acculturation patterns, and suggests a new form of Chinese community that combine Chinese and Canadian elements. By examining one facet of bicultural experience, this study is a valid starting point for an examination of acculturation and enculturation process.

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.
