The core insight state determines capacity. What a person can perceive, feel, think, and do depends on their nervous system regulatory state — not their character or intelligence. TEG-Blue measures this through a Four-Mode Gradient (Connection → Protection → Control → Domination) and explains it through 12 frameworks integrating 139+ established theories from polyvagal theory, attachment research, trauma studies, affective neuroscience, and systems thinking. Published research includes computational analysis of 10,000+ natural conflict narratives validating four-mode detection, with a key finding that de‑escalators show 78% higher rates of complexity markers — signs of self‑awareness, perspective‑taking, and emotional differentiation in natural language. The project operates two platfo...
