Assessment & Adoption

CL7_B-context-driven adjustments have to recognize the importance of CL6_S-authoritative reports and strive to adhere to any position and principles within them. However, this necessary deference does not mean ignoring local realities.

Authoritative reports tend to be axiomatic and expect to be acknowledged and applied. However, it must be recognized that every actual situation is different and certain features cannot be ignored to enable intellectual purity. Appropriate adjustments must be allowed.

The CL5_S-prevailing mindset is naturally rather general and somewhat vague on details, but it will be influenced by effectively disseminated CL6_S-authoritative reports.

Prevailing mindsets can affect the production of an authoritative report, encouraging the author in regard to emphases and even the tone of the communication.

The prevailing CL3_S-mindset is typically riven with dualistic positions and polarized thinking of all sorts. So they can be the route to exposing relevant CL3_P-polarities in a situation.

Once polarities are articulated, they can expose the popular mindset's denials of conflict and adherence to other distortions like blaming external forces.

Awareness of crucial CL3_P-polarities in the situation will be used to judge the plausibility of any CL1_B-explanations.

Plausible explanations also pass judgements on proposed polarities. They may judge that the polarity is a relevant source of difficulties, they may also argue that a proposed polarity is (again) being inappropriately highlighted, or affirm that a fundamental polarization is (again) being suppressed or ignored despite being the source of difficulties.

Any one involved in a CL7_B-contextual adjustment will naturally bring CL6_P-relevant standards to bear. This would never be used to block appropriate adaptations because there is respect that modifications will be needed.

Adaptations, in turn, should not be approved, much less implemented by the group, without respecting relevant standards upheld by members.

CL6_P-owned standards have a permanence and ethical power that makes them useful in evaluating CL5_P-personal versions. They serve as a guide and reference and will ensure the version is suitable.

A personalized version in a particular situation may cause a person to review the standards being deemed relevant and check whether they actually apply in this particular case.

CL5_P-personalized versions will either minimize or enhance the impact of social concern for CL3_S-tensions depending on the person's stance.

Appreciating tensions will inject emotion into the situation and that is liable to intensify a person's version.

Interpersonal and social CL3_S-tensions may be ignored or avoided to minimize discomfort. However, if a CL1_B-plausible explanation refers to tensions in the situation, this will generate concern. If there are no reference to tensions, then questions may arise about whether these might exist and be relevant.

Tensions show up as frictions, pain-points and conflicts which typically generate a demand for an explanation.
