From: "Human Potential & Development."
Split Justification: Development fundamentally involves both our inner landscape (**Internal World**) and our interaction with everything outside us (**External World**). (Ref: Subject-Object Distinction)..
2
From: "Internal World (The Self)"
Split Justification: The Internal World involves both mental processes (**Cognitive Sphere**) and physical experiences (**Somatic Sphere**). (Ref: Mind-Body Distinction)
3
From: "Cognitive Sphere"
Split Justification: Cognition operates via deliberate, logical steps (**Analytical Processing**) and faster, intuitive pattern-matching (**Intuitive/Associative Processing**). (Ref: Dual Process Theory)
4
From: "Analytical Processing"
Split Justification: Analytical thought engages distinct symbolic systems: abstract logic and mathematics (**Quantitative/Logical Reasoning**) versus structured language (**Linguistic/Verbal Reasoning**).
5
From: "Quantitative/Logical Reasoning"
Split Justification: Logical reasoning can be strictly formal following rules of inference (**Deductive Proof**) or drawing general conclusions from specific examples (**Inductive Reasoning Case Study**). (L5 Split)
6
From: "Inductive Reasoning Case Study"
Split Justification: Induction involves forming general rules (**Hypothesis Generation**) and testing their predictive power (**Hypothesis Testing**). (L6 Split)
7
From: "Hypothesis Testing"
Split Justification: Testing a hypothesis involves designing a fair test (**Designing a Simple Experiment**) and drawing conclusions from the outcome (**Interpreting Results**).
8
From: "Designing a Simple Experiment"
Split Justification: Designing a simple experiment fundamentally involves two distinct yet complementary aspects: first, establishing the core elements that will be manipulated, measured, or kept constant (variables and controls); and second, detailing the step-by-step execution plan, including methodology, data collection, and logistical considerations (experimental protocol).
9
From: "Development of Experimental Protocol"
Split Justification: This split divides the development of an experimental protocol into two fundamental aspects. "Definition of Experimental Design Parameters" focuses on the conceptual and structural elements of the experiment, such as identifying and defining variables, establishing control groups, implementing randomization or blinding, and determining sample selection criteria. "Specification of Operational Procedures" details the practical, step-by-step instructions for conducting the experiment, including materials and equipment lists, precise measurement techniques, data collection methods, safety protocols, and a timeline. These two components are distinct yet collectively form a complete experimental protocol.
10
From: "Definition of Experimental Design Parameters"
Split Justification: This dichotomy separates the core elements of the experiment concerning the variables being manipulated and measured and their hypothesized relationships (substantive) from the practical, procedural, and analytical aspects of how the experiment will be conducted, controlled, and analyzed to ensure validity and reliability (methodological).
11
From: "Methodological Experimental Parameters"
Split Justification: Methodological Experimental Parameters can be fundamentally divided into those defining the specific treatments, manipulations, or conditions applied (Intervention Parameters) and those defining how data, observations, and outcomes are systematically collected and quantified (Measurement Parameters). This dichotomy separates the 'doing' or 'applying' aspect of an experiment from the 'observing' or 'recording' aspect, which are distinct yet comprehensively cover the practical methodology.
12
From: "Measurement Parameters"
Split Justification: This dichotomy separates parameters related to measurements taken at a single point in time or representing a fixed state from parameters related to measurements taken over time or representing changes and processes. This distinction is fundamental in experimental design as it dictates the temporal nature of data collection and analysis.
