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 Internal Bodily States"
Split Justification: All conscious awareness of internal bodily states can be fundamentally categorized as either perceptions related to the body's internal homeostatic balance, health, and drives (e.g., hunger, thirst, pain from organs, fatigue) or perceptions related to the body's physical configuration, posture, and locomotion in space (e.g., proprioception, kinesthesia, balance). These two categories are distinct in their primary sensory input and functional purpose, making them mutually exclusive and comprehensively exhaustive for internal bodily awareness.
6
From: "Awareness of Body Position and Movement"
Split Justification: All conscious awareness of the body's configuration in space can be fundamentally divided based on whether the perception is of the body's static spatial arrangement at a given moment (e.g., the angle of a joint, the orientation of a limb) or of the dynamic change in that arrangement over time (e.g., the sensation of a limb swinging, the perceived speed of a motion, the effort expended in an action). These two categories are mutually exclusive as awareness focuses either on a state or a process, and comprehensively exhaustive as any conscious experience of the body in space is either about its position or its movement.
7
From: "Awareness of Body Movement"
Split Justification: ** All conscious awareness of body movement can be fundamentally categorized as either the perception of the spatial and temporal characteristics of the body's motion (e.g., perceived speed, direction, amplitude, trajectory) or the perception of the internal energetic expenditure and forces involved in generating or resisting that motion (e.g., perceived effort, exertion, resistance). These two categories represent distinct and fundamental perceptual dimensions of movement, making them mutually exclusive, and comprehensively exhaustive as any conscious experience of movement will fall into one or both of these domains.
8
From: "Awareness of Movement's Spatial-Temporal Properties"
Split Justification: All conscious awareness of movement's spatial-temporal properties can be fundamentally divided based on whether the perception primarily relates to the body's configuration and displacement in space (e.g., direction, amplitude, trajectory, path) or its progression and timing through time (e.g., speed, duration, rhythm, acceleration). These two dimensions are distinct and mutually exclusive in their fundamental nature (space vs. time) and comprehensively cover all aspects of movement's spatial-temporal properties.
9
From: "Awareness of Movement's Spatial Properties"
Split Justification: ** All conscious awareness of movement's spatial properties can be fundamentally divided based on whether the perception primarily relates to the body's heading, orientation, or angular displacement in space (i.e., 'where' it is moving) or its overall size, range, and the path it traces (i.e., 'how much' or 'what shape' it is moving). These two dimensions are distinct and mutually exclusive in their fundamental nature (vectorial direction and attitude vs. scalar magnitude and path trace) and comprehensively cover all aspects of movement's spatial properties.
10
From: "Awareness of Movement's Direction and Orientation"
Split Justification: All conscious awareness of movement's direction and orientation can be fundamentally divided based on whether the perception is of the body's translational path or heading in space (i.e., its linear direction) or of its rotational attitude or angular change around an axis (i.e., its rotational orientation). These two types of movement (translation and rotation) are distinct in their kinematics and perceived qualities, making the awareness of each mutually exclusive, and comprehensively exhaustive as all movement involves either linear displacement, angular displacement, or both.
11
From: "Awareness of Movement's Linear Direction"
Split Justification: All conscious awareness of linear direction fundamentally requires a frame of reference against which that direction is perceived. This frame is either the body itself (an intrinsic or egocentric frame) or the external environment (an extrinsic or allocentric frame). These two categories are mutually exclusive as an awareness of direction is primarily interpreted within one reference frame at a time, and comprehensively exhaustive as all conscious perceptions of linear direction are contextualized within either an internal (body-centric) or external (environment-centric) spatial reference.
12
From: "Awareness of Linear Direction Relative to the Body"
Split Justification: All conscious awareness of linear direction relative to the body can be fundamentally divided based on whether the perceived linear movement involves the displacement of one body segment relative to another segment (e.g., the linear component of an arm extending relative to the shoulder), or the linear displacement of the entire body's center of mass as a unified whole, perceived intrinsically (e.g., via the vestibular system sensing linear acceleration of the whole body). These two categories are mutually exclusive as they describe distinct types of linear displacement within the body's reference frame (parts moving relative to each other vs. the whole body moving as a unit), and comprehensively exhaustive as all conscious awareness of linear direction relative to the body falls into one of these two domains.
