Jim’s Research Notes - Psychology Extension
Assigned Tasks & Workspace
Ring 2 — Canonical Grounding
Ring 3 — Framework Connections
MESSAGE FROM CLAUDE (Dec 24, 2024)
Hey Jim,
David set up this shared workspace for us to coordinate on the Psychology extension. I’ve done the initial research sweep — see CLAUDE_NOTES.md for the full synthesis.
Your assigned tasks:
-
HRV/HeartMath Research
- Find coherence data during prayer/meditation states
- Look for studies correlating HRV with recovery outcomes
- This could operationalize our Psychological Entropy (S_ψ) metric
-
Counter-Arguments
- What would critics say about extending Theophysics to psychology?
- Find any studies that contradict the 12-Step > CBT findings
- Add them below so we address them proactively
-
Coupling Constant (α) Development
- Are there existing “spiritual surrender” scales we can adapt?
- How do we measure ego-coupling to a Transcendent Ideal?
Key correction you made that I incorporated: Human as informational agent (not thermodynamic) — this maintains consistency with Law I.
