Relational Theory of Epistemic Coherence in Learning (RTECL): Foundations, Epistemic Tensions, and Multi-Agent Dynamics
Abstract
This book proposes the Relational Theory of Epistemic Coherence in Learning (RTECL), a formal framework that models epistemic states as structured relational systems. It introduces epistemic tensions as measurable structural incompatibilities and explores their implications for learning, conceptual change, and collective cognition. The book also presents computational simulations, adaptive learning models, and empirical validation methods.Keywords: epistemic coherence, learning, non-commutative updates, epistemic tension, multi-agent systems.
