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: "Intuitive/Associative Processing"
Split Justification: Intuitive/associative processing fundamentally operates in two distinct, yet complementary, modes: either by rapidly identifying and utilizing pre-existing patterns and associations (often automatically and implicitly), or by forming new, non-obvious connections that lead to emergent insights and novel ideas. These two categories comprehensively cover the scope of how this cognitive function processes information.
5
From: "Novel Connection & Insight Generation"
Split Justification: Novel Connection & Insight Generation fundamentally serves two distinct, exhaustive purposes: either to deepen comprehension and reveal latent truths about existing concepts or phenomena (understanding), or to produce new ideas, solutions, or expressions that did not previously exist (creation/innovation). An insight is primarily oriented towards one of these two outcomes.
6
From: "Insight for Conceptual Understanding"
Split Justification: ** When gaining conceptual understanding through insight, the focus is fundamentally directed either inward, revealing the core nature, internal mechanisms, or intrinsic properties of a concept or phenomenon itself, or outward, integrating that concept within a broader network of related ideas, systems, causes, effects, or implications. These two perspectives comprehensively cover how understanding is deepened.
7
From: "Extrinsic Insight (Broader Contextual Integration)"
Split Justification: Extrinsic Insight (Broader Contextual Integration) involves understanding a concept's place within its external environment. This understanding fundamentally branches into two exhaustive and mutually exclusive modes: either by discerning its current structural configuration and static relationships with other entities or systems (Structural & Relational Context), or by comprehending its dynamic origins, evolutionary trajectory, causal influences, and effects over time (Process & Causal Context). These two perspectives comprehensively cover how something is integrated into its broader environment.
8
From: "Structural & Relational Context"
Split Justification: When gaining insight into a concept's "Structural & Relational Context," understanding fundamentally branches into two exhaustive and mutually exclusive modes: either by discerning its internal organization, its constituent parts, and its position as a component within a larger, nested system (Hierarchical & Compositional Structure), or by identifying its connections, dependencies, similarities, and differences with other distinct entities at a comparable level within its operational context (Lateral & Interdependent Relationships). These two perspectives comprehensively cover how a concept's current static structure and relationships are understood within its broader environment.
9
From: "Lateral & Interdependent Relationships"
Split Justification: When gaining insight into "Lateral & Interdependent Relationships," understanding fundamentally branches into two exhaustive and mutually exclusive modes: either by discerning the shared traits and distinguishing characteristics between entities at a comparable level (similarities and differences), or by identifying the direct or indirect links and mutual reliance that exist between them (connections and dependencies). These two perspectives comprehensively cover the scope of lateral and interdependent relationships within a static, structural context.
10
From: "Comparative Attributes (Similarities & Differences)"
Split Justification: When gaining insight into "Comparative Attributes (Similarities & Differences)," the focus of comparison fundamentally branches into two exhaustive and mutually exclusive modes: either by discerning descriptive qualities, categories, types, or non-numerical characteristics (qualitative attributes), or by identifying measurable quantities, magnitudes, dimensions, or numerical values (quantitative attributes). These two modes comprehensively cover the ways in which attributes can be analyzed for similarities and differences.
11
From: "Qualitative Attribute Comparison (Categorical & Descriptive)"
Split Justification: When gaining insight through "Qualitative Attribute Comparison (Categorical & Descriptive)," the comparison fundamentally branches into two exhaustive and mutually exclusive modes: either by discerning attributes that are fundamental, inherent, and indispensable to the core nature, identity, or classification of the entities being compared (essential qualities), or by identifying attributes that are circumstantial, dependent on external factors, temporary states, or specific contexts of the entities (contingent qualities). These two perspectives comprehensively cover the types of qualitative attributes analyzed for similarities and differences.
12
From: "Essential Qualitative Attributes (Core & Intrinsic)"
Split Justification: ** When gaining insight into "Essential Qualitative Attributes (Core & Intrinsic)," these attributes fundamentally branch into two exhaustive and mutually exclusive types: those that define the entity's core identity, kind, and fundamental being (what it intrinsically IS), or those that describe its inherent capabilities, tendencies, and modes of operation stemming directly from that core identity (what it intrinsically CAN DO or DOES). These two perspectives comprehensively cover how essential qualitative attributes are understood.
