ECT Working Papers & Publications
The materials listed on this page present peer-reviewed articles, manuscripts under review, and theoretical working papers developed as part of the Energetic Consciousness Theory (ECT) research programme. Working papers are shared to clarify conceptual foundations, develop specific theoretical components, and support ongoing scholarly discussion. They are exploratory in scope and do not substitute for peer-reviewed publication.

Energetic Constraints and Behavioural Attractors in Human Systems
This paper develops a constraint-based account of behavioural stability and persistence grounded in Energetic Consciousness Theory. It introduces behavioural attractors as emergent equilibria under energetic limitation and examines their role in behavioural rigidity, regression, and path dependence.
Behavioural Modes as Energetic Outcomes of Constraint
This working paper develops the behavioural implications of Energetic Consciousness Theory by explicitly connecting the foundational behavioural modes introduced in Volume I (Foundations) with the unified constraint architecture developed in Volume II. It shows how Constructive, Neutral, and Regressive behaviour emerge as energetic equilibria under constraint, rather than as moral, psychological, or intentional categories.
Several working papers and articles draw on the canonical diagrams and constraint structures defined here.
