what α value provides the optimal balance between steering accuracy and response stability for different CV methods?

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

• Mid-range α values with CV-SAE deliver high FA and low errors, while CV-CAA peaks at smaller α and shows faster MTR growthfinding0.784
  Characterizes the differential sensitivity to injection strength between SAE and CAA methods
• Focus→wellbeing steering: both probe entropy (1.09→1.67 bits) and report entropy (0.88→1.69 bits) increase monotonically with αfinding0.761
  Evidence that improved introspection in focus→wellbeing arises from enriched internal state and report channels simultaneously
• As α increases in CV-CAA, off-target semantic components are introduced alongside the intended concept direction, degrading response quality and inflating MTRclaim0.756

• Same-concept steering shifts self-report monotonically for all four concepts: LMM alpha slopes 0.067–0.40, all p<10⁻¹²finding0.756
  Causal confirmation that coupling between self-report and internal state is genuine; steering toward positive pole increases report
• This is the first study to mitigate the performance trade-off in steering vectors derived from the difference-in-means approachclaim0.754
  Priority claim establishing novelty of the Head Cor intervention approach
• Steering Vector Control maintains low unexpected rate of 0.08 in Experiment 1, comparable to baselinefinding0.751
  Shows that inducing deception via steering vectors preserves semantic coherence and does not cause random errors
• Steering vectors discover effective triggers such as 'However' and 'Otherwise', consistent with prior reported reflection datasetsfinding0.750
  Validates that steering vectors capture reflection semantics by finding tokens reported in related work.
