Origin Path

1
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)..
➔ "Internal World (The Self)" (W1)
"External World (Interaction)" (W2)
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)
➔ "Cognitive Sphere" (W3)
"Somatic Sphere" (W5)
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)
➔ "Analytical Processing" (W7)
"Intuitive/Associative Processing" (W11)
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**).
➔ "Quantitative/Logical Reasoning" (W15)
"Linguistic/Verbal Reasoning" (W23)
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)
"Deductive Proof." (W31)
➔ "Inductive Reasoning Case Study" (W47)
6
From: "Inductive Reasoning Case Study"
Split Justification: Induction involves forming general rules (**Hypothesis Generation**) and testing their predictive power (**Hypothesis Testing**). (L6 Split)
➔ "Hypothesis Generation" (W79)
"Hypothesis Testing" (W111)
7
From: "Hypothesis Generation"
Split Justification: Generating a hypothesis requires identifying a pattern (**Observing Correlations**) and formulating a testable explanation (**Stating a Falsifiable Claim**).
➔ "Observing Correlations" (W143)
"Stating a Falsifiable Claim" (W207)
8
From: "Observing Correlations"
Split Justification: This dichotomy separates the process of identifying relationships based on numerical data and statistical analysis from the process of discerning patterns and connections within non-numerical, descriptive, or categorical information. Together, these two categories comprehensively cover the fundamental modes of observing correlations in any form of data or experience for hypothesis generation.
➔ "Observing Quantitative Correlations" (W271)
"Observing Qualitative Associations" (W399)
9
From: "Observing Quantitative Correlations"
Split Justification: This split categorizes the observation of quantitative correlations based on the number of variables involved in the relationship. A quantitative correlation fundamentally involves either two variables (bivariate) or more than two variables (multivariate), making these categories mutually exclusive and jointly exhaustive for any observed quantitative relationship.
➔ "Observing Bivariate Quantitative Correlations" (W527)
"Observing Multivariate Quantitative Correlations" (W783)
10
From: "Observing Bivariate Quantitative Correlations"
Split Justification: This split differentiates observed relationships based on whether the pattern of association between the two quantitative variables approximates a straight line or follows a curved or more complex form. This provides a fundamental and comprehensive dichotomy for categorizing the visual or conceptual structure of bivariate quantitative correlations.
➔ "Observing Linear Bivariate Quantitative Correlations" (W1039)
"Observing Non-linear Bivariate Quantitative Correlations" (W1551)
11
From: "Observing Linear Bivariate Quantitative Correlations"
Split Justification: Linear bivariate quantitative correlations are fundamentally characterized by two distinct properties: their direction (positive or negative relationship) and their strength (the degree of association). These two aspects are mutually exclusive in their description but jointly cover the complete observation of such correlations.
➔ "Observing the Direction of Linear Bivariate Quantitative Correlations" (W2063)
"Observing the Strength of Linear Bivariate Quantitative Correlations" (W3087)
12
From: "Observing the Direction of Linear Bivariate Quantitative Correlations"
Split Justification: The direction of a linear bivariate quantitative correlation is fundamentally categorized as either positive (where both variables tend to move in the same direction) or negative (where variables tend to move in opposite directions). These two categories are mutually exclusive and comprehensively cover all possible observed directions for linear relationships between two quantitative variables.
