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 Generation"
Split Justification: Generating a hypothesis requires identifying a pattern (**Observing Correlations**) and formulating a testable explanation (**Stating a Falsifiable Claim**).
8
From: "Stating a Falsifiable Claim"
Split Justification: This dichotomy distinguishes between claims that assert a specific outcome based on given conditions and claims that assert a universal property or relationship for an entire category, both being fundamental forms of falsifiable statements.
9
From: "Stating a Conditional Prediction"
Split Justification: This dichotomy distinguishes between conditional predictions where a specific outcome is expected to occur with absolute certainty given the condition, and those where an outcome is expected with a specified probability or likelihood. This covers all ways a conditional prediction can be formulated in logical and scientific contexts.
10
From: "Stating a Deterministic Conditional Prediction"
Split Justification: This dichotomy distinguishes the fundamental source of the deterministic link between condition and outcome. One category encompasses predictions where the certainty arises from universal, immutable natural laws (physical, chemical, biological). The other category covers predictions where the certainty stems from the predefined rules of human-designed systems (e.g., social, technological, logical) or the explicit, binding intentions or commitments of an agent. This ensures mutual exclusivity and comprehensive coverage of all deterministic conditional predictions.
11
From: "Deterministic Conditional Prediction of Natural Causation"
Split Justification: This dichotomy partitions natural causation based on whether the primary mechanisms involve non-living matter and energy (abiotic) or living organisms and their biological processes (biotic). This split is fundamental, mutually exclusive, and comprehensively covers all phenomena within natural causation, allowing for deterministic conditional predictions within both domains.
12
From: "Deterministic Conditional Prediction of Abiotic Causation"
Split Justification: Abiotic causation can be fundamentally categorized into physical processes (involving forces, energy, motion, and state changes without altering molecular composition) and chemical processes (involving the rearrangement of atoms and formation/breaking of chemical bonds, thereby altering molecular composition). This split represents a foundational dichotomy, ensuring mutual exclusivity while comprehensively covering all forms of non-biological causation.
