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: "Stating a Falsifiable Claim"
Split Justification: This dichotomy distinguishes between claims that assert a specific outcome based on given conditions and claims that assert a universal property or relationship for an entire category, both being fundamental forms of falsifiable statements.
9
From: "Stating a Categorical Generalization"
Split Justification: This dichotomy differentiates categorical generalizations based on the scope of their quantifier: whether the claim applies to all members of a category (universal) or to at least one member (particular). This is a fundamental logical distinction that is mutually exclusive and comprehensively covers all forms of categorical generalizations.
10
From: "Universal Categorical Generalization"
Split Justification: This dichotomy separates universal categorical generalizations based on whether they describe an inherent, intrinsic characteristic common to all members of a category (Universal Intrinsic Property Generalization) or a consistent interaction, behavior, or relationship these members exhibit in response to external factors or other entities (Universal Extrinsic Relational Generalization). Both types represent falsifiable claims that comprehensively cover the scope of universal categorical statements about the world.
11
From: "Universal Intrinsic Property Generalization"
Split Justification: This dichotomy distinguishes between intrinsic properties that are universally true by virtue of the definition or logical structure of the concept (analytic) versus those that are universally true based on consistent empirical observation and experience, adding substantive knowledge not contained within the concept's definition (synthetic). Together, these categories comprehensively cover all forms of universal intrinsic property generalizations.
12
From: "Synthetic Universal Intrinsic Property Generalization"
Split Justification: This split differentiates synthetic universal intrinsic property generalizations based on the nature of the empirical evidence used to establish the generalization. Observable Intrinsic Property Generalizations are those where the intrinsic property itself is directly perceived across instances, while Inferred Intrinsic Property Generalizations are those where the intrinsic property is not directly perceived but is deduced or extrapolated from other observable phenomena. This provides a fundamental distinction in the epistemic basis of the synthetic claim.
