Subject Behavior. Personal Interest of the Moment (PIM) as a Sufficient Condition for an Action
Author: Alexander Ashkenazi 1. Definitions of Basic Terms 1. Subject — a human or other living creature whose behavior is being considered.2. Subject Behavior — the set of actions committed by the subject.3. Action — an act actually committed by the subject.4. Influencing Factor — an internal or external circumstance affecting the subject's behavior.5. Internal Factors — circumstances pertaining to the subject itself: character, knowledge, beliefs, habits, desires, abilities, reflexes, etc.6. External Factors — circumstances external to the subject: the environment, incoming information, actions of other subjects, threats, restrictions, etc.7. Personal Interest of the Moment (PIM) — the resultant of all internal and external factors influencing the subject at the moment under consideration. There are no other factors influencing the subject at this moment, as PIM encompasses them all.8. Event — that which actually occurred.9. Sufficient Condition (S) — a condition whose presence guarantees the occurrence of a specific result.10. Result (R) — an event or action whose occurrence is guaranteed by the sufficient condition S.11. Guarantee — a relationship in which the presence of a sufficient condition ensures the occurrence of a specific result.12. Formula of the Universe S > R — a formula expressing the guarantee relationship: S guarantees R. The ">" symbol in this formula denotes "guarantees," not standard mathematical comparison.13. Resultant — the outcome of the combined influence of all considered factors.14. Considered Moment — the moment to which the analyzed factors and the committed action pertain. 2. Formulation of the QuestionEvery action of a subject is actually committed under specific circumstances. The internal and external factors influencing the subject form a totality defined here as PIM.The question arises: is PIM a sufficient condition guaranteeing precisely the action that the subject actually committed?The aim of this work is to prove that the sufficient condition for an action actually committed by a subject constitutes PIM. 3. Foundations of the ProofThis proof is grounded in the Formula of the Universe S > R, proved by the author in the article "Formula of the Universe."According to this formula, S is a sufficient condition guaranteeing the occurrence of R — a specific event or result.First Proposition: Every action actually committed is an event.Second Proposition: According to the proved Formula of the Universe S > R, every actually occurred event has a sufficient condition S guaranteeing precisely this event.Consequently, any action actually committed by a subject has a sufficient condition S guaranteeing its occurrence. 4. ProofLet us consider an action that a subject actually committed at a specific moment.Step 1. Since the action has been actually committed, it is an occurred event.Step 2. According to the Formula of the Universe S > R, this event has a sufficient condition S guaranteeing its occurrence.Step 3. At the moment under consideration, internal and external factors influence the subject. Their resultant is defined by us as PIM.Step 4. By definition, PIM encompasses all factors influencing the subject at the considered moment. There are no influencing factors outside this totality.Step 5. The subject's action is committed under the combined influence of these factors. Consequently, the sufficient condition guaranteeing the action actually committed constitutes PIM in the subject's behavior. Thus, we obtain: S = PIMSince S guarantees action R, the final formulation is: PIM > RQuod erat demonstrandum (Q.E.D.). 5. ExampleConsider the following situation. A cat and a saucer of sour cream are inside a closed room. A person leaves them there and exits. After some time, the person returns to find the sour cream gone and the cat looking full. The keys to the room remained with the person the entire time.The question arises: where did the sour cream go?Under the given conditions, the person concludes that the cat ate the sour cream, as there are no other available explanations in the described situation.This example illustrates the general principle of reasoning: when considering an event that actually occurred and taking all circumstances into account, one must establish the condition guaranteeing precisely this result.In subject behavior, PIM plays an analogous role: it encompasses the entire totality of factors influencing the subject at the moment the action is committed. 6. Significance of the ProofIf the presented proof is correct, then PIM should be viewed not merely as a set of circumstances exerting an influence on the subject, but as a sufficient condition for their actually committed action.This means that PIM does not merely participate in shaping behavior. Within the framework of the theory considered, it guarantees precisely the action that was committed.This approach allows us to view subject behavior through the Formula of the Universe S > R, applying the general principle of sufficient condition to the specific case of human or other living behavior.Furthermore, the internal and external factors listed in the definitions serve merely as examples. A exhaustive list is unnecessary, as the definition of PIM inherently encompasses all influencing factors without exception. 7. ConclusionIn this work, subject behavior is examined and a relationship is established between an action actually committed and the personal interest of the moment.The proof relies on the Formula of the Universe S > R, proved by the author in the article "Formula of the Universe," and on the definition of PIM as the resultant of all internal and external factors influencing the subject at the considered moment.From these propositions follows the main conclusion: PIM is a sufficient condition guaranteeing an action actually committed by a subject.In other words: S = PIM → PIM > RThus, the personal interest of the moment is regarded as a sufficient condition for a subject's action within the framework of the Formula of the Universe S > R.Hence, all behavior of a subject from the moment of birth until the moment of death is absolutely predetermined. And it is predetermined not by someone, but by the formula S > R. *** Sincerely yours,Alexander Ashkenazi Contact Information:Facebook: Alex AshkenaziEmail: [email protected]
