- emotion feature persistenceassociated_withThe phenomenon that emotion feature activations remain elevated above baseline beyond local token bursts, measurable as long-range correlation
- steerable emotion featuresassociated_withEmotion-encoding directions in LLM activation space that can be amplified or suppressed via activation steering to causally drive model behavior

- States that encode perceptual model and expectations; emerge naturally from free-energy optimization.
- The model's internal representation of uncertainty hypothesized to trigger self-reflection
- The property of emotion features maintaining elevated activation well beyond the local token context that triggered them
- The view that epistemic justification is fully determined by factors internal to the subject's mind, often linked to consciousness.
- Psychological states like emotions, moods, pains, itches, defined by valence and arousal.
- Salient vectors in the space of emotions and intuitions; percepts of emotion, physiological valence, and extra-intellectual evaluation of reality
- Criterion requiring that causal influence of internal state on description be internal, not routed through sampled outputs; rules out pseudo-introspection via self-observation.
- Feature representing dilemmas, inner conflict; used to correct deceptive behavior.
