For the past 15 years I have been working on a predictive theory of human cognition. It is called Functional Cognitive Typology. The book will be called "A Theory of Mind: Introduction to Functional Cognitive Typology" (Since I am ASD... I thought this would be a funny title since I "don't have a theory of mind")
The base scientific philosophy here is that there is no "order" in nature (order is an abstraction used by the human mind to simplify complex observable phenomenon). If there is no natural order, then there are no disorders. There are individuals who are in dysfunctional states instead.
Life itself is based on Function. Function is how living things survive in their environment.
Humans have types to facilitate this survival. ASD (EC) is actually a gene spreading mechanism (get tortured by NTs (CA**))... leave the tribe... mate with members of the new tribe thus adding fresh genes in order to prevent mutational meltdown in the adopted tribe)
Here is the theory in simple terms:
Humans have a survival strategy similar to Ants, Bees, Termites and Naked Mole Rats (These are Eusocial Animals) I call the human strategy "Pre-Eusocial" in that we do not have a single female producing offspring in the human survival group.
Humans have 4 drives that are related to the types found in Eusocial communities. These are diagnosed as disorders when in dysfunction (because they are types... they might be misdiagnosed). These drives are created through differences in 3 neurotransmitter pathways.
The "Disorder" here is what is most likely (but not always) what might be diagnosed if the type is in dysfunction or is extreme. I see this as fairly inaccurate.
Eusocial Type = Drive = Tribal Function ~ Disorder-Orthography
1. Drone = Understanding=Teacher, Caretaker~ADHD - U (Cannot Process Culture)
2. Worker = Acceptance=Participants~NT, Baseline -A
3. Soldier= Trust=Guardian (of children) General)~Schizotypal -T
4. Queen=Respect=Chief, Queen~Narcissistic Personality Disorder (both genders) -R
1. Feels social pleasure through someone understanding they care
2. Feels social pleasure in a group
3. Feels pleasure on being trusted
4. Feels pleasure when people look up at them (either in adoration or fear)
These have an older kind of type:
Extra-Cultural = ASD -EC (Cannot Learn Culture)
Cultural = non ASD -C
And two even older types
Somatic = Adrenaline Seeking -S (Feels pleasure for adrenaline creating activities, novel experiences)
Cerebral = Adrenaline Averse -C (Feels pain/sickness for adrenaline creating activities, novel experiences)
Respect Driven and Acceptance Driven are the newest types (the modern types) and have a secondary type.
in the orthography:
Respect-Understanding RU ~ Narcissist
Respect-Trust RT ~ Sociopath, Psychopath
Acceptance-Understanding AU = More progressive group joiner
Acceptance-Trust = AT More conservative group Joiner
The acronyms work like this
Culture Type+Drive+(Secondary Drive)+Adrenaline Type (Possible diagnosis)
ECUS = Extra-Cultural Understanding Driven Somatic (this would be ASD + ADHD)
ECUC = Extra-Cultural Understanding Driven Cerebral (this would be ASD + ADD)
CUC = Cultural Understanding Driven Cerebral (ADD)
CUS = Cultural Understanding Driven Somatic (ADHD)
ECRTC = Extra-Cultural Respect Trust Driven Cerebral (ASD Cerebral Sociopath)
CRUC = Cultural Respect Understanding Driven Cerebral (Cerebral Narcissist)
and many other combos.
There is something I call "The Pattern".
If Your Dad is R and your Mother is U
(This is not always exact... about 80 percent of the time it is, just remove the genders that do not exist)
1st Son is likely U
1st Daughter is likely R
2nd Son is Likely R
2nd Daughter is Likely U
3rd Son is likely U
3rd Daughter is likely R
4th Son is Likely R
4th Daughter is Likely U
It is the opposite if the mother is R and the father is U
Anyway... since I don't process and never learned culture... my brain has to built theoretical frameworks to understand the world. It is predicted that I would come up with this kind of theory. Since everything lives on a continuum, we can add + or - to be more accurate.
I am EC+U+S-
You may see me referring to this theory in my posts, so I felt it best to explain it.
