Selection Encoding Hypothesis (SEH): A Working Research Framework for the Emergence of Subjectivity and Reflexivity
Selection Encoding Hypothesis (SEH) is an open working research framework that investigates how environmental information progressively develops into subjectivity, reflexivity, and adaptive freedom through hierarchical encoding processes. Rather than addressing metaphysical questions concerning the nature of consciousness or reality, SEH focuses on proposing experimentally testable mechanisms for the emergence of subjectivity. This OSF project serves as the official archive of theoretical development, research notes, working papers, and future experimental protocols.
