Structural Architectures of Affective Systems: Investigating the CEF 'Combating' Scenario

This report investigates the scenario of the Core Emotion Framework (CEF) being “combated,” concluding that the framework is not suppressed externally but instead functions as a corrective architecture combating the structural failure of modern emotional understanding. Drawing on structural-constructivist theory, somatic psychology, and affective science, the document analyzes the CEF’s tripartite system, Decalogue of Operators, technological extensions (ECM, INAS), and clinical applications. It further examines open-science dissemination strategies and the framework’s position within contemporary psychological paradigms.
