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)

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 Internal Somatic Dynamics of Locomotion"
Split Justification: Conscious awareness of internal somatic dynamics during locomotion can be fundamentally divided based on whether it primarily concerns the specific physical mechanics, position, and movement trajectory of the body's limbs and overall structure (e.g., proprioception, kinesthesia of limb motion), or whether it primarily concerns the physiological expenditure, effort, fatigue, and energetic state experienced by the body during that movement (e.g., perceived exertion, muscle strain, internal rhythm, fatigue). These two domains are mutually exclusive as one focuses on the kinematic and positional data of the moving body, while the other focuses on the internal energetic and physiological feedback. Together, they comprehensively cover all forms of conscious internal somatic dynamics associated with locomotion.
9
From: "Awareness of Body Mechanics and Spatial Configuration during Movement"
Split Justification: ** Conscious awareness of body mechanics and spatial configuration during movement can be fundamentally divided based on whether it primarily concerns the instantaneous spatial relationships, relative angles, and overall postural alignment of body segments (i.e., the body's configuration at a given moment), or whether it primarily concerns the dynamic pathways, velocity, and qualitative attributes of the movement of those body parts as they change position. These two domains are mutually exclusive as one focuses on the momentary arrangement and static-like aspect of the moving body, while the other focuses on the continuous process of change and dynamic flow. Together, they comprehensively cover all forms of conscious awareness related to body mechanics and spatial configuration during movement.
10
From: "Awareness of Limb and Joint Movement Trajectories"
Split Justification: ** Conscious awareness of limb and joint movement trajectories can be fundamentally divided based on whether it primarily concerns the specific spatial path, shape, and direction traced by the moving body parts (e.g., arc, straight line, angle of rotation), or whether it primarily concerns the perceived temporal characteristics such as speed, acceleration, rhythm, and smoothness of that movement. These two domains are mutually exclusive as one focuses on the form and spatial extent of the path, while the other focuses on the dynamic execution and timing of traversing that path. Together, they comprehensively cover all aspects of a movement's trajectory.
11
From: "Awareness of the Temporal Qualities and Rate of Movement"
Split Justification: Conscious awareness of the temporal qualities and rate of movement can be fundamentally divided based on whether it primarily concerns the instantaneous intensity and variability of the movement's progression (i.e., how fast it is and how quickly its speed is changing) or whether it primarily concerns the broader patterns, overall time span, and qualitative flow of the movement over a period. These two domains are mutually exclusive as one focuses on the moment-to-moment metrics of temporal change, while the other focuses on the holistic temporal organization and characteristics of the movement's unfolding. Together, they comprehensively cover all aspects of conscious awareness related to the temporal qualities and rate of movement.
12
From: "Awareness of Movement Rhythm, Duration, and Smoothness"
Split Justification: Conscious awareness of movement rhythm, duration, and smoothness can be fundamentally divided based on whether it primarily concerns the *qualitative characteristics* of how the movement unfolds over time (its underlying temporal pattern and the continuity or fluidity of its progression) or whether it primarily concerns the *quantitative measurement* of the overall time period the movement occupies from start to finish. These two domains are mutually exclusive as one focuses on the inherent nature and form of the temporal unfolding, while the other focuses on the complete temporal extent of that unfolding. Together, they comprehensively cover all forms of conscious awareness related to movement rhythm, duration, and smoothness.
