CDT · ECOSYSTEM

The Interconnected CDT Ecosystem

Constructed Development Theory (CDT) — considerably sharpened, formalised and extended.

The interconnected ecosystem

  1. IACR — Intention → Awareness → Choice → Response as the core developmental architecture.
  2. CAIR — the therapeutic/coaching adaptation of that process.
  3. Dynamic Intelligence (DI) — intelligence as the capacity to construct awareness appropriately in the moment.
  4. Ontophronology — the name for the process by which the self/thinking is constructed through interaction with the environment.
  5. The Awareness Quotient (AQ) — particularly the AQ4–AQ10 developmental ladder and clearer behavioural definitions at each level.
  6. The Thinking Quotient (TQ) — including the empirical rules derived from Cognitive Intention configurations.
  7. The Cognitive Intentions framework — the 50 paired intentions, their interactions, gaps, combinations and developmental significance.
  8. CI combinations / behavioural prediction engine — turning combinations of Cognitive Intentions into predicted behavioural constructions.
  9. The Development Onion — as a model of layered construction/development.
  10. The Zone of Deliberate Development (ZDD).
  11. The More Complex Other — particularly the AQ+1 developmental environment idea.
  12. Real-Time Modelling (RTM).
  13. Linguistic Listening.
  14. Vertical Introspection / Vertical Interoception.
  15. The idea that “Will is only free at the point of Awareness.”
  16. The associated reframing of willpower — “Willpower is what deliberate awareness looks like from the outside.”
  17. Identity as an environmental question — identity constructed appropriately for the environment rather than discovered as a fixed thing.
  18. The manipulation configuration involving Own/Partner/Observer × Caring for Self/Others × Internal/External.
  19. The Construction Universe / Leadership Topology ideas.
  20. The 3D Leadership Capacity model.
  21. The Complexity Gap — particularly as an explanation for leadership and organisational failure.
  22. The Three Leaders model/programme — progressively increasing the complexity at which leaders solve a problem.
  23. FRAME — and its different versions for police, prisons, leadership and other institutional environments.
  24. Procedural Justice × CDT — especially the idea that policing depends upon how the officer is constructing the community in the moment.
  25. The Investigative Mindset work through a developmental lens.
  26. The Developmental Apprenticeship model for HMP Five Wells.
  27. Prisoner-Led Insight (PLI).
  28. Emancipation Education.
  29. The Constructed Questioning concept.
  30. The Developmental Navigation Engine (DNE) — the “crossword” idea in which movement through a problem depends upon reconstruction rather than merely answering questions.
  31. AQ-banded developmental puzzles within the DNE.
  32. Environment as Axiom 0 within that system.
  33. The Constructed Monomyth — our developmental reconstruction of the Hero’s Journey.
  34. NeuroTheism — belief in God approached as a developmental/neuropsychological construction problem.
  35. Flowareness.
  36. The replacement/reframing of Dunning–Kruger through a developmental construction model.
  37. The “Television Dots” idea — people seeing different amounts/connections of information depending upon developmental complexity.
  38. The ball-juggling analogy for complexity.
  39. The “thinking is the task” principle.
  40. The idea that adulthood should be understood through construction rather than age — age-linked development without age-caused development.
  41. The proposed six-problem adult-development synthesis we’ve just been working on.
  42. The CDT versus CBT conceptual comparison.
  43. The IACR standalone conceptual paper.
  44. The “Why Psychology Needs a Theory of Construction” paper.
  45. The Next Level Coaching model/paper.
  46. The Coaching Philosophy / evolving coaching paradigms paper.
  47. The Theory of Planned Behaviour × CDT work.
  48. The Sentence Completion × CI/AQ mapping project.
  49. The police thinking-style research project using the officer dataset.
  50. Thinking Deliberately.
  51. Coaching Deliberately.
  52. Leading Deliberately.
  53. Speaking Deliberately.
  54. Being Deliberately.
  55. Teaching Deliberately as an emerging project.
  56. The wider “Deliberately” architecture as a coherent family rather than unrelated books.
  57. The podcast seasons built around CDT, adult development, pop psychology, tools/models and the stranger philosophical ideas.
  58. The “Deconstructing Pop Psychology” concept.
  59. The Weird Ideas / philosophy-development podcast material.
  60. The AQ/TQ developmental profiling offer.
  61. AQ-Adaptive.
  62. Potentialisation as the assessment/development environment.
  63. The CEO developmental questionnaire / leadership research strand.
  64. Beyond the Tribe.
  65. Future England as a political/social thought experiment.
  66. Perfunctory University — including the glorious fact that the word itself is partly constructed by the observer. 😁
  67. The Perfunctory University visual identity / crest system.
  68. The specialist Masonic “Complexity Lodge” / Lodge of Deliberate Construction idea.
  69. The Question Lab.
  70. The Beyond-NLP repositioning around CDT.
  71. The redesigned public architecture for your own CDT material online.
  72. The “reputational vigilantism” idea for describing modern attempts to punish somebody institutionally for relatively trivial speech.
  73. The institutional narrative / organisational groupthink framing we used with the Harvard/Cambridge examples.
  74. The “Bigotry of Low Expectations” developmental argument.
  75. The idea of adult development as an organising principle for professions that work with humans — essentially the BHAG behind all of this.
Meta-framework

And, increasingly, a coherent meta-framework connecting all of the above: environment → intention → construction → awareness → choice → response → consequence → reconstruction.
