The Dynamic Architecture of Resilience: A Mathematical and Structural Framework of Affective Transmutation
Year: 2026
Type: preprint
Abstract: Current psychological paradigms frequently conceptualize resilience as a localized neural network attribute or a capacity for rigid endurance. Observing human behavior under extreme stress parameters, however, necessitates a paradigm shift. This paper formalizes resilience as a non-linear, structural dynamic system. By mathematically defining the 'Affective Transmutation Ratio' (the interplay of sorrow and aggressive drive) and identifying the necessity of 'Adaptive Cognitive Yielding', this framework posits that ultimate adaptability is not survival through endurance, but survival through heuristic destruction. Furthermore, an integrated 5-Tier Architecture and thermodynamic principles of cognitive rumination are introduced to address existing theoretical gaps in the systems-neuroscience literature.
