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: "External World (Interaction)"
Split Justification: All external interactions fundamentally involve either other human beings (social, cultural, relational, political) or the non-human aspects of existence (physical environment, objects, technology, natural world). This dichotomy is mutually exclusive and comprehensively exhaustive.
3
From: "Interaction with Humans"
Split Justification: All human interaction can be fundamentally categorized by its primary focus: either on the direct connection and relationship between specific individuals (from intimate bonds to fleeting encounters), or on the individual's engagement within and navigation of larger organized human collectives, their rules, roles, and systems. This dichotomy provides a comprehensive and distinct division between person-to-person dynamics and person-to-society dynamics.
4
From: "Personal Relationships"
Split Justification: Personal relationships can be fundamentally divided based on whether their primary origin is an unchosen, inherent bond (such as family or blood ties) or a volitional, chosen connection based on mutual interests, affection, or shared values. This dichotomy accounts for all personal bonds.
5
From: "Chosen and Affinitive Relationships"
Split Justification: All chosen and affinitive relationships can be fundamentally categorized by the presence or absence of a romantic and/or sexual dimension. This dichotomy is mutually exclusive, as a relationship either encompasses these elements or it does not, and it is comprehensively exhaustive, covering all forms of chosen bonds from intimate romantic partnerships to platonic friendships, mentorships, and other volitional connections based on shared interests or values.
6
From: "Non-Romantic Affinitive Relationships"
Split Justification: All non-romantic affinitive relationships can be fundamentally distinguished by whether their primary focus is the direct, personal bond, mutual support, and shared experience between individuals (companionship), or if it centers on a common external objective, a specific shared activity, or the exchange of skills and knowledge (purpose or activity). This dichotomy is mutually exclusive, as a relationship's core driver is one or the other, and comprehensively exhaustive, covering all forms of non-romantic chosen connections.
7
From: "Personal Companionship Relationships"
Split Justification: All personal companionship relationships fundamentally vary in the depth of emotional intimacy, vulnerability, and shared life experiences. Some connections are characterized by profound trust, extensive mutual support, and a central role in an individual's life, while others focus on broader social interaction, shared interests, and less intensive emotional engagement. This dichotomy comprehensively divides all personal companionship based on the intensity and scope of the bond.
8
From: "General Social Companionship"
Split Justification: All general social companionship fundamentally divides into bonds that are primarily focused on direct, reciprocal, albeit casual, connections between specific individuals (Individualized Social Ties), versus those that are primarily derived from one's participation in or presence within a broader group, community, or shared social environment, leading to more diffuse social engagement and a sense of belonging (Group and Community Social Bonds). This dichotomy is mutually exclusive, as a given social companionship manifests predominantly in one form or the other, and comprehensively exhaustive, covering all facets of general social interaction that are less intensive than intimate companionship.
9
From: "Individualized Social Ties"
Split Justification: ** All individualized social ties fundamentally differentiate by whether their primary mode of existence and interaction is tied to a shared, recurring environment or situation, facilitating spontaneous engagement, or if it primarily relies on the discrete, personal choice and initiative of individuals to engage, largely independent of such constant shared context. This dichotomy captures the passive versus active dimension of maintaining casual social bonds, ensuring mutual exclusivity and comprehensive coverage.
10
From: "Volitional Social Ties"
Split Justification: ** All volitional social ties, arising from discrete personal choice and initiative, fundamentally differentiate by their primary mode of chosen engagement: either through direct verbal or textual exchanges to maintain connection or share information without requiring co-presence (Communicative Social Ties), or through arranging and participating in shared activities, events, or physical encounters that involve co-presence (Co-Participatory Social Ties). This dichotomy is mutually exclusive, as the primary nature of a volitional interaction is distinctly one or the other, and comprehensively exhaustive, covering all ways individuals actively choose to engage in general social companionship.
11
From: "Co-Participatory Social Ties"
Split Justification: ** All Co-Participatory Social Ties fundamentally differentiate based on whether the primary purpose of the shared activity is to facilitate direct social connection and interaction between individuals (Relationship-Centric Co-Participation), or if the primary purpose is the engagement in the activity or event itself, with social connection being a natural outcome or secondary aspect (Activity-Centric Co-Participation). This dichotomy is mutually exclusive, as the core intent of a given co-participatory interaction is distinctly one or the other, and comprehensively exhaustive, covering all forms of active, chosen social engagement involving co-presence.
12
From: "Activity-Centric Co-Participation"
Split Justification: All Activity-Centric Co-Participation fundamentally differentiates based on whether the individuals involved are primarily receiving, observing, or experiencing the activity as it unfolds (Receptive Activity Co-Participation), or if they are primarily acting, performing, contributing to, or actively shaping the activity itself (Engaged Activity Co-Participation). This dichotomy is mutually exclusive, as the primary mode of interaction with a given activity is distinctly one or the other, and comprehensively exhaustive, covering all forms of active, chosen social engagement where the activity is the core focus.
