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: "Somatic Sphere"
Split Justification: The Somatic Sphere encompasses all physical aspects of the self. These can be fundamentally divided based on whether they are directly accessible to conscious awareness and subjective experience (e.g., pain, touch, proprioception) or whether they operate autonomously and beneath the threshold of conscious perception (e.g., heart rate, digestion, cellular metabolism). Every bodily sensation, state, or process falls into one of these two categories, making them mutually exclusive and comprehensively exhaustive.
4
From: "Conscious Somatic Experience"
Split Justification: Conscious somatic experiences can be fundamentally divided based on whether their primary focus is on the body's internal condition, physiological state, or spatial configuration (e.g., hunger, proprioception, pain from an organ, fatigue) or whether they are primarily concerned with the body's interaction, contact, or perception of stimuli from the external environment (e.g., touch, temperature, pressure, pain from an external source). These two categories are mutually exclusive as an experience's primary referent is either internal or external to the body's boundary, and comprehensively exhaustive as all conscious somatic experiences fall into one of these two fundamental domains.
5
From: "Awareness of External Bodily Interactions"
Split Justification: ** All conscious somatic experiences focused on external interactions can be fundamentally categorized by whether the body is actively initiating and controlling the interaction with the environment (e.g., touching, grasping, applying pressure, manipulating objects) or whether it is passively receiving stimuli or impacts from the external environment (e.g., being touched, feeling ambient temperature, experiencing external pressure or impact). This distinction precisely separates experiences by the primary locus of agency in the interaction, making the categories mutually exclusive, and together they cover the entire scope of awareness of external bodily interactions, thus being comprehensively exhaustive.
6
From: "Awareness of Active External Bodily Engagement"
Split Justification: Active external bodily engagement can be fundamentally divided based on whether the conscious somatic experience primarily concerns the body's self-initiated movement through space and its dynamic orientation within the broader environment, or whether it primarily concerns the body's direct, focused interaction with and manipulation of specific external objects or surfaces. These two domains are mutually exclusive as the primary locus of active somatic awareness is either the body's global relationship to its environment or its localized interaction with discrete external entities. Together, they comprehensively cover all forms of awareness of active external bodily engagement.
7
From: "Awareness of Active Self-Locomotion and Body-Environment Orientation"
Split Justification: The conscious awareness involved in active self-locomotion and body-environment orientation can be fundamentally divided based on whether it primarily concerns the body's intrinsic physiological feedback about the ongoing movement itself (e.g., proprioception, kinesthesia, effort, internal sense of speed or rhythm) or whether it primarily concerns the interpretation and utilization of external environmental cues to guide movement, maintain balance relative to surroundings, and understand one's position within the broader space (e.g., visual input for navigation, vestibular input for direction and stability). These two domains are mutually exclusive as they represent distinct primary focuses of conscious sensory processing – one internal to the body's moving structure, the other external to the body's boundary but informing its spatial action. Together, they comprehensively cover all aspects of conscious awareness related to active movement through and orientation within an environment.
8
From: "Awareness of External Spatial Navigation and Orientation"
Split Justification: ** Awareness of External Spatial Navigation and Orientation can be fundamentally divided based on whether the external environmental cues are primarily processed for immediate, dynamic adjustments to movement and balance within the currently perceived environment, or whether they are primarily utilized to construct and reference a more abstract, overarching understanding of one's position and planned trajectory within a larger spatial context. These two categories are mutually exclusive as they distinguish between immediate motor control and higher-level cognitive spatial understanding, and comprehensively exhaustive as all forms of external spatial awareness for navigation and orientation fall into one of these two domains.
9
From: "Awareness of Real-time Environmental Cues for Movement Control"
Split Justification: Awareness of Real-time Environmental Cues for Movement Control can be fundamentally divided based on whether the awareness of these cues is primarily utilized to actively direct the body's progression through the environment, guiding its path, trajectory, and enabling interaction with specific features like obstacles or targets, or whether it is primarily utilized to maintain the body's upright posture, equilibrium, and stability in response to gravitational forces, self-motion, and changes in the support surface. These two categories are mutually exclusive as they address distinct, though often concurrent, functional objectives of real-time motor control, and comprehensively exhaustive as all forms of awareness of real-time environmental cues for movement control fall into one of these two fundamental purposes.
10
From: "Awareness of Cues for Real-time Postural Balance and Stability"
Split Justification: All awareness of external environmental cues processed for real-time postural balance and stability can be fundamentally divided based on whether these cues are primarily utilized to proactively prepare and adjust the body's posture in anticipation of impending or potential instability (e.g., bracing for an expected perturbation, preparing for an uneven surface) or whether they are primarily utilized to reactively correct and restore the body's posture in response to an ongoing or perceived deviation from equilibrium (e.g., recovering from an unexpected slip, re-balancing after a sudden sway). These two categories are mutually exclusive as they delineate distinct temporal relationships between the cue, the instability event, and the resulting postural adjustment, and comprehensively exhaustive as all forms of real-time awareness of external cues for postural stability fall into one of these two fundamental operational modes.
11
From: "Awareness of Cues for Anticipatory Postural Stability"
Split Justification: The conscious awareness of external cues for anticipatory postural stability can be fundamentally divided based on whether these cues primarily inform the body to prepare for a specific, identifiable future event or a planned action that will challenge stability, or whether they inform the body to maintain a continuous, generalized state of readiness due to the inherent or fluctuating instability of the ambient environment. These categories are mutually exclusive as they differentiate between anticipation of a bounded, specific challenge versus ongoing adaptation to a generalized, dynamic challenge, and comprehensively exhaustive as all external cues for anticipatory postural stability fall into one of these two fundamental operational modes.
12
From: "Awareness of Cues for Anticipatory Postural Adjustments for Discrete Events"
Split Justification: All discrete events necessitating anticipatory postural adjustments can be fundamentally divided based on whether the anticipated challenge to stability originates from the individual's own planned and executed movements or actions, or from external forces, impacts, or changes in the environment that are not directly caused by the individual's motor command. These two categories are mutually exclusive as the primary source of the discrete event (self or external) cannot simultaneously be both, and they are comprehensively exhaustive as all such discrete events requiring anticipatory postural adjustments must fall into one of these two fundamental domains.
