Mémotions as Affect-Semantic SAE Features: Empirical Program for Predictions P-M1 through P-M3

This project hosts the pre-registration of the empirical program associated with the mémotion hypothesis (Kleden, 2026, forthcoming on Zenodo). It specifies, prior to any data collection or analysis, the demarcation criteria for SAE feature candidates, the three falsifiable predictions P-M1 through P-M3, their success and refutation conditions, and the instrumental robustness criterion. This program is operationally distinct from the Axiodynamics research program registered at https://osf.io/rm42h, which addresses telotopic negentropy on discursive corpora. The present project governs exclusively the SAE-based mémotion empirical program.
