Pressure Theory: Mathematical Fundamentals of Psychology
Year: 2025
Type: article
Abstract: : This ongoing work aims to develop a mathematical, common, and practical language for the behaviors of organisms and the underlying causes of those behaviors. It primarily offers a systematic classification and clustering of behaviors, thereby laying the foundational groundwork for future functional modeling. In this context, the following contributions are presented: - The term Pressure is introduced together with its symbol. - The five types of Pressure are introduced, along with their symbols, definitions, and sub-types. - The features of Pressure are explained. - The Complexity feature is elaborated with illustrative examples. - The Reactions are introduced together with their symbols. - The types of Reactions are explained with examples. - The features of Reactions are explained. - A model of the Reactions and their sub-types is introduced. - The model is quantitatively structured. - The state of “not wanting” is explained within the Theory. - Professions are matched with the types of Pressure. - The problems and questions regarding the Theory are discussed.
