Does the model internally maintain a form of 'consistency score' or probability mass over coherent reasoning trajectories, and how is this score modulated during reflection?

Entities in the same semantic neighborhood but without a typed relation to this one — candidates for new edges or unrecognized duplicates.

• A model may produce internally coherent persona outputs while shifting characteristics across different generations, so intra-response and inter-response consistency must be assessed separatelyclaim0.831
  Supported by low correlation between ICatom and RCatom (r=0.44)
• a model becomes strongly confident in its final answer, but continues generating tokens without revealing its internal beliefquote0.803

• Whether LM question-answering consistency constitutes evidence for beliefs in a meaningful sense depends on the behaviourist operationalisation chosen.claim0.778

• Internal consistency (ICatom) captures a distinct dimension of persona fidelity not measured by prior accuracy or retest metricsclaim0.777
  Supported by low cross-metric correlations (r=0.40 with ACC, r=0.37 with RC)
• Any system that persists must minimise surprisal, thereby gathering evidence for its own generative model, a process known as self-evidencing.claim0.772
