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)..
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: "Linguistic/Verbal Reasoning"
Split Justification: This dichotomy separates the receptive aspects of linguistic reasoning, involving the understanding and interpretation of spoken or written language, from the expressive aspects, which involve the formulation and production of spoken or written language. These are distinct, fundamental processes that together encompass all facets of verbal reasoning.
6
From: "Verbal Expression"
Split Justification: This dichotomy separates the construction of logically sound arguments (Structuring an Argument) from the use of stylistic and persuasive language to influence an audience (Rhetorical Technique).
7
From: "Rhetorical Technique"
Split Justification: This split distinguishes rhetorical techniques that primarily appeal to reason and clarity (such as explanatory analogies) from those that appeal to emotion, character, and authority (such as ethos and pathos).
8
From: "Using an Explanatory Analogy"
Split Justification: Explanatory analogies fundamentally clarify by comparing either the static arrangement and relationships of components (structure) or the dynamic operation, purpose, and sequence of actions (function or process). These two categories are distinct in what aspect of the concept they primarily illuminate through comparison.
9
From: "Analogies for Explaining Structure"
Split Justification: This split differentiates between structures that are tangible, physical, and perceptible by the senses (concrete) versus those that are conceptual, systemic, or exist as ideas and relationships (abstract). This fundamental distinction governs the nature of the structure being explained by the analogy.
10
From: "Analogies for Explaining Concrete Structures"
Split Justification: This dichotomy separates analogies focused on the static, intrinsic attributes of a concrete structure (its physical arrangement, shape, and constituent materials) from those focused on its dynamic operations, purpose, and how its parts interact to achieve a specific outcome or respond to stimuli. Together, these two categories comprehensively cover the primary aspects of a concrete structure that an analogy might seek to illuminate.
11
From: "Analogies for Structural Function and Behavior"
Split Justification: This dichotomy separates analogies that focus on a structure's inherent function, its intended purpose, or its underlying design principles (Purpose and Design) from those that explain its dynamic operations, observable actions, and how it responds to various conditions over time (Action and Response).
12
From: "Analogies for Structural Purpose and Design"
Split Justification: This dichotomy directly separates the two core concepts embedded in the parent node title. "Structural Purpose" refers to the ultimate goal, function, or reason for a structure's existence (the 'why'), while "Structural Design" refers to the specific configuration, form, and components chosen to realize that purpose (the 'how'). They are distinct but complementary aspects of any structure.
