FeldmanDescribe-Analyze-Interpret-Judge Framework
Audit explicitly annotated Feldman describe/analyze/interpret/judge sequence, retaining missing stages and revisits rather than infer criticism quality. Feldman, Varieties of Visual Experience.
Description
A criticism-stage framework distinguishes description, analysis, interpretation and judgment while allowing revisits.
A criticism-stage framework distinguishes description, analysis, interpretation and judgment while allowing revisits.1
This tool identifies missing and backward stage transitions in a supplied annotation sequence.
When to use FeldmanDescribe-Analyze-Interpret-Judge Framework
Use this tool to identify missing and backward stage transitions in a supplied annotation sequence.
How to use FeldmanDescribe-Analyze-Interpret-Judge Framework and how it works
- Establish the observations, units, reference context and assumptions described below.
- Enter callerAnnotatedStages and run the tool.
- Read result.missingStages, result.descendingStageIndices using the meanings and sign conventions below.
- Correct any rejected inputs and rerun; independently review the result under the stated scope.
| Input field | Meaning | Value type | Requirement |
|---|---|---|---|
| callerAnnotatedStages | Ordered exact describe, analyze, interpret and judge tokens; empty lists and revisits are allowed. | array of string | Required; branch conditions below |
Supply a list of exact stage tokens describe, analyze, interpret or judge; an empty list is accepted. Map each token to its fixed stage rank, list every stage absent from the input, and return zero-based indices where a stage rank decreases from its immediate predecessor. Repeated stages and revisits are permitted; a descending index records a revisit rather than invalidating the criticism.
missing=fixedStages not in observed; descendingIndices=all i>0 with rank(stage_i)<rank(stage_(i-1)) Use the stated ordering, units and branch conditions.
| Output field | Meaning | Value type |
|---|---|---|
| result | Object containing the fields below. | object |
| result.missingStages | Fixed Feldman stage tokens absent from the observed list. | array |
| result.descendingStageIndices | Zero-based indices where fixed stage rank decreases from the preceding observation. | array |

}Limitations and assumptions
The calculation depends on independently established observations, coefficients and the matching units. It does not collect data, choose a treatment or target, establish model applicability or provide a validated forecast. Interpret its result within the branch conditions and assumptions above.
Supply explicit values and dense aligned arrays. Unexpected fields, wrong types and nonfinite scalar values are rejected; fixed-token, alignment and other branch conditions are explained above. A successful false flag, empty match list or unknown-evidence list differs from an input error. Extremely large inputs or nonrepresentable results may fail.
