PRISM Computational Studies - GB-C I: Reception, Affinity, Capacity, and the Transformation of Meaning

PRISM Computational Studies - GB-C I: Reception, Affinity, Capacity, and the Transformation of Meaning presents the first computational study of the early General Behavior Calculus (GB-C) pathway implemented in PRISM V0.1. The study examines how a present signal is transformed into perceptual meaning and how the subject's present Capacity condition subsequently transforms that perceptual construction through interpretation. The implementation follows GB-1 through GB-4, preserving Perceptual RawMeaning, Perceptual Posterior, Interpretive RawMeaning, and Interpretive Posterior as distinct computational states. It also establishes the computational role of Affinity in perceptual construction, Capacity-to-Affinity coupling in the Interpretive Kernel, and persistence as a means of preserving experimental provenance. PRISM V0.1 deliberately terminates at the Interpretive Posterior. The study therefore presents PRISM as a bounded computational measurement engine for examining the transformation of present meaning before consequence, rather than as a behavioral simulator or empirically validated predictive system.
