Generic scientific embedding models have no concept of self-actualization — they place it within 0.798 cosine similarity of depression, collapsing a peak human state into a clinical disorder. Measuring self-actualization at scale needs an embedding space that can tell the difference.

The world’s first NLP embedding model built for self-actualization.
A Self-Actualization Assessment Model: the first NLP embedding model specific to self-actualization, fixing generic models that conflate it with depression at 0.798 similarity. Pre-registered, corpus-grounded, and validated to NASA-grade rigor.
A self-actualization-specific embedding model trained and evaluated against a 68,683-paper corpus, benchmarked head-to-head with SPECTER2, and validated under a NASA-STD-7009B triple-tier protocol — the first model of its kind.
Principal investigator — the pre-registration, the corpus, the embedding model, and the validation protocol.
