This white paper demonstrates a structural model linking signal routing to behaviour in humans, indicating biology shapes psychological outcomes.
This white paper presents a structural model of human behaviour based on signal routing within the organism. It proposes that behaviour emerges from the organisation of electrical, mechanical, chemical, and sensory signals, rather than from psychological interpretation. The paper introduces a causal sequence—configuration → routing → physiology → behaviour—and positions routing as the generative mechanism underlying behavioural output. Within this framework, psychological constructs are treated as descriptive rather than causative. The model is presented as a conceptual and biologically grounded framework intended to clarify the conditions under which behaviour is produced, persists, and changes.
