Crime, cultural reintegration and community healing: Narratives of an Inuit community (Nunavut).
Bibliographic record
Abstract
The magnitude and severity of violent and sexual assaults committed against Inuit women in the Nunavut Territory (NU) is tremendously alarming. This is of particular importance when considering the paucity of programming initiatives designed for Inuit offenders that target such offences. Current rehabilitation strategies for offenders in Nunavut emphasize the importance of victim-offender reconciliation and traditionally based healing programs. However, such approaches often ignore the needs of female victims, and may subject them to secondary harm. The birth of Nunavut has empowered Inuit to tailor correctional initiatives to meet their needs, and created the opportunity for tremendous reform within the existing justice structure. Research related exclusively to criminality amongst Inuit would greatly facilitate this process. The purpose of my project was to seek insight and understanding regarding Inuit experiences of violence against women, while highlighting aspects of such violence that were distinct to Inuit. I conducted semi-structured interviews in Iqaluit, NU with male inmates at the Baffin Correctional Centre (B.C.C.), female victims at Qimavik Women's Shelter, as well as employees injustice-related positions. I utilized qualitative methodology to analyze the interviews, with grounded theory techniques as my primary investigative framework. Ultimately, my objectives were to provide suggestions for intervention programming with Inuit offenders that would not re-victimize women. The treatment guidelines I developed focused upon personal and community healing of Inuit, largely through cultural redefinition and reintegration.Dept. of Psychology.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot 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.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
