Abstract
A unique psychotherapeutic method of Internalized Other Interviewing (IOI) has emerged over the last 35 years. It is based on a social constructionist and bringforthist perspective in which a person as a self-aware individual is seen to arise through a rich history of interaction with other human beings. If a therapist can apply this understanding and conceive of the self as constituted by an internalized community in one's memory, it becomes coherent to interview any member of that inner community as an internalized other within the client. As a result, the possibilities for intervention in a client's relationships are expanded. If the IOI method is used in the presence of the actual other in conjoint work, the latter could meet their distributed self as they exist in the interviewee, and even more change possibilities arise. This paper focuses on applying the method in clinical practice using examples, transcripts, and commentary.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model 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.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
