• mirror of the self testmethod0.879
  A method introduced in Book 1 where observers compare their feeling of self with the life in a candidate thing; Alexander claims it correlates with observed life in thousands of centers.
• To what level does this model actually implement mirror self-recognition?question0.830
  Explicitly posed in the discussion to frame the theoretical contribution
• Alexander Mirror Testmethod0.817
  Forced-choice pairwise comparisons asking 'Which response has more life?'; captures aesthetic quality rubrics miss
• Performing the mirror-of-the-self test gradually brings the observer closer to contact with the original mind.claim0.812
  The reciprocal effect: doing the test deepens self-knowledge and judgment.
• Inductive Theory of Mirror Self-Recognitionframework0.809
  Mitchell's theory requiring kinesthetic-visual matching and understanding of mirror correspondence; the model is claimed to implement its core elements
• Self-reflectionconcept0.807
  The ability of reasoning LLMs to review and revise previous reasoning steps during inference
• The mirror-of-the-self test produces judgments of relative life that are consistent across people and correspond to objective living structure.claim0.805
  Central methodological claim of the chapter, supported by multiple experiments.
• The mirror-of-the-self test is not mechanical; its accuracy depends on the observer's level of personal development.claim0.804
  Important caveat about the reliability of the method.
