Measure three temporal dimensions of emotional patterns—peak
Measure three temporal dimensions of emotional patterns—peak reactivity, onset speed, and recovery time—because they independently determine functional impact regardless of frequency.
Why This Is a Principle
Grounds to Subcortical Fast-Pathway Threat Processing (fast subcortical processing), The prefrontal cortex requires time to override limbic (prefrontal override requires time), and Under acute stress, the prefrontal cortex degrades in (stress degrades prefrontal function). Prescribes measuring three independent dimensions that map to different intervention possibilities. Highly actionable and specific.
