Applied Direction of Meaning — Foundational Research Statement (Scientific–Operational Edition)

This document operationalizes the Direction of Meaning law as the scientific foundation of the Preciencia System. It defines coherence as directional continuity observable across biological, linguistic, and symbolic planes, and formulates falsifiable predictions for replication. The paper aligns theoretical and physiological domains through measurable indices—Directional Coherence Index (DCI), Translational Continuity Score (TCS), and Feedback Closure Signal (FCS)—and establishes methodological transparency for data processing, annotation, and algorithmic auditing. The SOL grammar (verb-first, one exhalation = one utterance, proportional pauses as closure cues) provides a universal linguistic substrate for coherence analysis. Designed as the operational keystone of the Applied Direction of Meaning series, this edition links conceptual architecture to empirical validation and delineates the path toward the Coherence Metrics & Applied Neuro-Semiotics Preciencia Research Edition.
