Knowledge boundary

  • Source: content/projects/project-atlas/research-plan/project-atlas-foundation-research-plan.md
  • Status: active (inferred from publishable inventory)
  • Discipline: Theory
  • Confidence: stated in source; mixed
  • Primary objective: purposes: - orient - decide - apply audiences: - executive - practitioner - researcher - contributor
  • Primary claims/evidence: - Gestalt psychology - Replicated experimental studies
  • Methodology: - Contrast - Hierarchy - Scale - Rhythm - Balance - Tension - Alignment - Repetition - White Space
  • Limitations/known uncertainties: Not explicitly labeled; the frontier records below treat missing replication, boundary, measurement, transfer, and benchmark evidence as unresolved.

Challenge and confidence decay

The source was challenged for construct validity, independent replication, boundary conditions, transfer, and comparative baselines. Confidence should decay when the source lacks a dated replication, when its technology or target population changes, or when later artifacts report contradictory findings. Revalidation is recommended before treating context-bound recommendations as universal.
