Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

HIV/AIDS is fast becoming a global crisis and young people worldwide are one of the most vulnerable groups. Within the youth population there is strong evidence that girls are particularly at risk (UNAIDS). Our interest in gender youth and HIV risk was inspired by the work of the Canada South African Management Program (CSAEMP) a partnership of CIDA McGill University and the National Department of Education in South Africa. Through CSAEMP Mitchell and Larkin worked with South African educators and learners on the development of the education module Opening Our Eyes: Addressing Gender-Based Violence in South African Schools (Mlamleli Napo Mabelane Free Goodman Larkin Mitchell Mkhize Robinson and Smith) a document designed to educate teachers about issues related gender-based violence. This CIDA-funded project brought to light the link between gender and HIV a connection we are now applying to our understanding of HIV risk in Canadian youth. The AIDS crisis in South Africa is particularly acute: the national rate of prevalence is 22.8 per cent with infection rates rising at an alarming rate most significantly in youth (Anthropology News). In Canada however the number of reported HIV infections is also on the rise with more teens infected than ever before (Health Canada 2000). With the stark increases in incidence among women in both the industrialized and the developing world there is growing acknowledgement that HIV/AIDS is a highly gendered disease (Simmons Farmer and Schoepf; UNAIDS). The rise in the HIV incidence rate of both women and youth suggests that young females be a particularly vulnerable group (Grierson; White; Wingwood and DiClemente). In South Africa for example the HIV incidence rate among South African girls is three to four times higher than boys (Brown). (excerpt)

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.
