Obviology Framework

Obviology is a sense-based cognitive framework designed to formalize how humans
process information, resolve ambiguity, and reach alignment across emotional, logical,
and holding (delay / load) states.

Scientific Grounding

  • Predictive Processing: The brain minimizes prediction error rather than
    passively receiving information (Friston, 2010).
  • Attractor Dynamics: Stable mental states emerge as attractor basins in
    high-dimensional neural manifolds (Hopfield, 1982; Amit, 1992).
  • Affective Modulation: Emotional valence biases attention, memory encoding,
    and decision thresholds (Pessoa, 2008).
  • Working Memory Load: Cognitive delay and holding states arise under ambiguity
    or overload (Baddeley, 2003).

Tri-Sense Model

  • Emotional Sense
  • Logical Sense
  • Holding Sense
