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: "Observing Correlations"
Split Justification: This dichotomy separates the process of identifying relationships based on numerical data and statistical analysis from the process of discerning patterns and connections within non-numerical, descriptive, or categorical information. Together, these two categories comprehensively cover the fundamental modes of observing correlations in any form of data or experience for hypothesis generation.
9
From: "Observing Qualitative Associations"
Split Justification: This dichotomy distinguishes between identifying qualitative associations based on the intrinsic, common attributes or characteristics of the observed elements (e.g., shared themes, categories, or properties), versus identifying associations based on their extrinsic relationships in time, space, or condition (e.g., events happening together, one after another, or one appearing contingent on another).
10
From: "Observing Associations by Shared Qualities"
Split Justification: This dichotomy differentiates between observing shared qualities that are concrete, directly perceivable, or physical (tangible attributes like color, shape, texture) versus those that are abstract, functional, symbolic, or relational, requiring conceptual understanding (like purpose, role, or underlying principle). This comprehensively covers the types of qualitative attributes used for association.
11
From: "Observing Associations by Tangible Qualities"
Split Justification: This dichotomy fundamentally separates how humans perceive tangible qualities based on sensory modality. Visual tangible qualities are those perceived primarily through sight (e.g., color, shape, size, pattern), while non-visual tangible qualities encompass all others perceived through senses like touch, hearing, smell, or taste (e.g., texture, temperature, sound, odor, flavor). This split is mutually exclusive and comprehensively covers all ways tangible qualities can be observed.
12
From: "Observing Associations by Non-Visual Tangible Qualities"
Split Justification: This dichotomy distinguishes between non-visual tangible qualities that require direct physical contact for perception (proximal, e.g., touch, taste) versus those that can be perceived from a distance (distal, e.g., sound, smell). This represents a fundamental and comprehensive split for how these qualities are sensed.
