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: "Pattern Matching & Implicit Activation"
Split Justification: ** This dichotomy fundamentally separates the rapid, often automatic, identification and utilization of patterns based on direct sensory input (e.g., recognizing faces, sounds, immediate environmental threats) from the rapid, often automatic, identification and utilization of patterns based on abstract meaning, categories, semantic knowledge, and higher-level schema (e.g., understanding language, social cues, expert intuition). These two categories delineate distinct levels of information abstraction in pattern processing, comprehensively covering the scope of how pre-existing patterns are implicitly identified and utilized.
6
From: "Conceptual Pattern Matching & Activation"
Split Justification: This dichotomy separates the rapid, often automatic, identification and utilization of conceptual patterns based on abstract factual knowledge, semantic networks, and categories (knowing 'what' things are) from the rapid, often automatic, identification and utilization of conceptual patterns based on skills, rules, and action sequences (knowing 'how' to do things). These two categories delineate distinct forms of conceptual knowledge processing, comprehensively covering the scope of how abstract patterns are implicitly identified and activated.
7
From: "Procedural Conceptual Pattern Activation"
Split Justification: This dichotomy fundamentally separates the rapid, often automatic, identification and utilization of conceptual procedural patterns (skills, rules, action sequences) that are primarily directed towards orchestrating physical actions, movements, or interactions within the external environment, from those that are primarily directed towards orchestrating internal mental operations, transformations, or cognitive strategies within the mind. These two categories comprehensively cover the scope of how 'knowing how' is implicitly activated and applied, either in the external world or within one's own cognitive processes.
8
From: "External Procedural Activation"
Split Justification: This dichotomy fundamentally separates the rapid, often automatic, identification and utilization of conceptual procedural patterns (skills, rules, action sequences) directed towards orchestrating physical actions, movements, or interactions within the external environment, into those primarily focused on interaction and coordination with other sentient beings or social systems, and those primarily focused on interaction with, and manipulation of, inanimate objects, tools, or the physical environment itself. These two categories comprehensively cover the scope of how external procedural 'knowing how' is implicitly activated.
9
From: "Social Interaction Procedural Activation"
Split Justification: This dichotomy fundamentally separates the rapid, often automatic, identification and utilization of conceptual procedural patterns (skills, rules, action sequences) in social interactions into those primarily focused on initiating, sending, and conveying one's own information, intentions, or actions, and those primarily focused on perceiving, interpreting, and understanding the information, intentions, or actions received from others. These two categories comprehensively cover the scope of how social 'knowing how' is implicitly activated, based on the primary directionality of the procedural application.
10
From: "Social Expressive Procedural Activation"
Split Justification: This dichotomy fundamentally separates the rapid, often automatic, identification and utilization of conceptual procedural patterns for social expression into those primarily relying on structured linguistic systems (e.g., speech, sign language, written communication) and those primarily relying on non-linguistic cues (e.g., body language, facial expressions, gestures, paralinguistics). These two categories comprehensively cover the scope of how social expressive 'knowing how' is implicitly activated, based on the fundamental medium of communication.
11
From: "Linguistic Expressive Procedural Activation"
Split Justification: This dichotomy fundamentally separates the rapid, often automatic, identification and utilization of conceptual procedural patterns for social linguistic expression into those primarily manifested through the vocal-auditory channel (e.g., speech) and those primarily manifested through visual-manual or visual-spatial channels (e.g., written language, sign languages). These two categories comprehensively cover the scope of how linguistic expressive 'knowing how' is implicitly activated, based on the primary sensory-motor modality of its procedural execution.
12
From: "Visual Linguistic Expressive Activation"
Split Justification: This dichotomy fundamentally separates the rapid, often automatic, identification and utilization of conceptual procedural patterns for visual linguistic expression into those primarily manifested through the creation of structured, often static, visual symbols (e.g., handwriting, typing, printing) and those primarily manifested through dynamic, manual and bodily gestures within a spatial field (e.g., sign languages). These two categories comprehensively cover the scope of how visual linguistic 'knowing how' is implicitly activated, based on the fundamental nature of the visual output and production method.
