Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Plays are simulations of social interaction that run on minds rather than on computers. Literary simulations depend on folk theory and have 3 properties that are useful to psychology: (a) They offer scriptlike themes and variations that depict narrative progressions with problem-solving motifs, (b) they enable us to experience emotions and their transformations as we try to understand them, and (c) they offer a greater possibility of insight into emotions than do some experiences of everyday life. In Romeo and Juliet, the successions of the script of falling in love are brought to consciousness. In Hamlet, the emotion line engages the audience in the experience of transformations of emotions. In The Seagull, actors depict emotions as giving rise to relationships among characters, with a suggestiveness that engages the audience. Modes of experience enabled by such simulations augment folk theory. The systemic thinking provided by imaginative literature enables us to understand how emotions initiate, maintain, and transform modes of relationship.

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
