Categories at the first and the second level of the hierarchy work as super-groups and sub-groups.
Only the categories at the third level of the hierarchy—the leaf categories—are predicted, but the full path starting from the super-group is returned as an additional property for each category.

Warning

Grouping is purely ontological. The names of the groups have no positive or negative connotations: in particular, the high, fair and low qualifications in sub-groups are not to be interpreted as a moral judgment, but as the intensity with which encompassed behavioral traits represent the super-group.

Output structure

The model output has the same structure as any other model and is affected by the functional properties of the workflow block.
The peculiar part of the output is the result of categorization, i.e. the categories array.

As stated above, the categories that can be returned in output—the recognized behavioral traits—are only those at the 3rd level of the hierarchy, the "leaves" of the tree.
The 1st and 2nd level categories are used to group the others. The information of the group and sub-group a behavioral trait belongs to is available in output in the hierarchy property, which represents the full path of the output category inside the tree.
For example:

...
"frequency": 75.25,
"hierarchy": [
    "Moderation",
    "Moderation low",
    "Gluttony"
],
"id": "7102",
"label": "Gluttony"
...

Example

Considering the following text:

Research commissioned by Newsround has found that 10-12 year-olds feel worried and pressured about looking good in the photos they share on social media. The majority take at least four selfies before choosing one to share, and three quarters say they edit photos before posting them. But what's shaping their attitudes?

the categorization is:

"categories": [
        {
            "frequency": 0,
            "hierarchy": [
                "Action",
                "Action high",
                "Initiative"
