Dependencies

What this concept builds on and what it makes possible — derived from the atlas’s dependency, causal and structural relations, not from every related edge.

Mind depends on working memory.

Mechanism: The mind depends on memory to hold and manipulate information.

Structural role & consequence

Interpreted from the current atlas graph — what the connections mean, not just how many there are.

  • Removing this node severs the only sampled structural route between ABC model (REBT) and Beck's cognitive triad — a non-redundant bridge here.

    structural · Structural removal simulation — not a historical or causal counterfactual.

  • 39% of its relationships cross field boundaries, reaching 5 other disciplines — unusual in a discipline where most concepts stay within their field.

    structural · Structural graph analysis — not a claim of importance, causation or history.

  • Currently dark in the atlas: no key date stored · 18 of 18 of its relations lack claim-level evidence.

    atlas representation · Describes the current Thinking OS representation, not the state of the world.

  • Builds on 1 foundation (requires / depends-on / derived-from / emerges-from).

Strengths & constraints

Strengths

  • Cross-disciplinary connector — 39% of its relationships cross field boundaries. structural

Constraints

  • Evidence coverage currently thin in the atlas — few of its relationships carry claim-level evidence. atlas representation
  • Non-redundant bridge — removing it severs a sampled route between neighbouring clusters. structural
  • No dated history stored — the atlas records no key date for this concept. atlas representation

Conditions

  • Its dependency reading rests on 1 foundation relation. structural
  • Read structurally — most of its relationships carry no external evidence yet, so claims here are graph-derived. structural

Dependency radial

What this concept builds on (left) and what it makes possible (right) — derived from dependency and causal relations.

Seen through each discipline

How this concept sits in each of its fields — derived from its real connections in the graph, not asserted.

Psychology

Through this lens it connects to Working memory, Maslow's hierarchy of needs, Alderfer's ERG theory and Self-determination theory.

The same structure shows up in other disciplines. These are real recurrences drawn from the graph — a starting point for asking “what carries over, and what changes?”

The scientific picture
  • Connects 18 other ideas across 2 disciplines.
  • A cross-disciplinary bridge — its connections reach into 5 other fields.
  • Most of its connections are of the “Teaching link” kind.

Derived from the graph’s real structure — observations, not a score.
