Abstract

Abstract School refusal behavior refers to a child's refusal to attend school, as well as difficulties with remaining in classes for an entire day. The behavior refers to school‐age youth who miss entire or partial school days, skip classes, or arrive late to school for unjustified reasons. School refusal behavior also includes youth who display morning behavior problems to stay home from school and youth who attend school under great duress that precipitates pleas for future nonattendance. The behavior is differentiated from parents who deliberately withdraw their child from school and from youths with significant exigent circumstances such as homelessness that prevent adequate school attendance.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
