1. Original input
A person talks naturally about ambiguous feedback, the urge to fix it immediately, replaying the conversation, seeking reassurance, and finding it difficult to return attention to the next task.
-
2. What Gee notices
Gee separates described events, thoughts, bodily responses, protective actions, consequences, and possible interruption points. Interpretations remain tentative and editable.
-
3. Structured result
The finished map exposes two connected shapes: a self-reinforcing uncertainty loop and a practical route back through pausing, checking evidence, tolerating uncertainty, and taking one small step.
-
4. Human correction
The person can move concepts, change relationship direction or strength, and remove any interpretation that does not match their experience.
-
5. Reopened and reused
The saved structure can be revisited after another similar moment to compare what repeated, what changed, and which interruption was useful.
