A long-term research project on volition, meaning, and human transformation.
This research began with a simple question:
Over the past few decades, humanity has accumulated unprecedented knowledge. Yet anxiety has not diminished, disorientation has not decreased, and crises of meaning have become increasingly common. WCAT's research begins precisely here.
The questions addressed by WCAT and CMC span cognitive science, psychology, philosophy, education, and AI research:
The aim is to build an open case database, a long-term tracking sample pool, and a cross-disciplinary research network. The goal is not to prove this theory correct, but to understand more accurately how humans change.
An independent researcher. Years of sustained writing, documentation, and case observation gradually developed into the WCAT and CMC frameworks — still being revised.
Currently unaffiliated with any academic institution. This independent research is grounded primarily in long-term personal observation and iterative reflection. Methodological foundations include cognitive science, complex systems theory, and phenomenological interviewing — though the framework does not belong to any single discipline.
This body of observation continues to evolve. People from all backgrounds are welcome to discuss, examine, and challenge it.
