What does this research mean for the field?

Root Frequency Theory posits that coherent self-experience relies on continuous alignment across nested biological, neural, and symbolic processes. Novelty: ClaimNovelty.NOVEL_FINDING. Consensus alignment: ConsensusAlignment.ESTABLISHES_NEW_DIRECTION.

The Root Frequency Theory: A Multiscale Framework for Experiential Continuity

Key Points

This research aims to establish a framework that explains coherent self-experience through aligned processes.
Propose a theoretical framework for self-experience
Introduce a cross-scale architecture (C0–C4)
Develop a research protocol for empirical validation
Establishes the importance of alignment across multiple processes
Highlights the multiscale nature of self-experience

Abstract

Root Frequency Theory (RFT) is an integrative framework proposing that coherent self-experience depends on continuous alignment across nested biological, neural, and symbolic processes. This project presents the theoretical framework, cross-scale architecture (C0–C4), and a proposed research protocol for empirical validation.
