Chained trigger
a sequence of behavioral links where the completion of one agent becomes the trigger for the next agent in the sequence, creating a self-sustaining behavioral cascade that converts multiple decisions into a single initial activation
Why This Is a Definition
This definition precisely establishes the semantic boundary of 'chained trigger' by identifying its genus (sequence of behavioral links) and differentia (completion of one agent becoming trigger for next, creating self-sustaining cascade, converting multiple decisions into single activation). It distinguishes chained triggers from single triggers by emphasizing the sequential nature and the functional transformation of decision costs. The definition aligns with Skinner's chaining principle and the lesson's focus on converting behavioral momentum into automatic sequences.
