Subjectica: Sensory Circulation and Pre-Motor Readiness in Embodied Decision-Making

The study of emotional body mapping has emerged as a critical tool for understanding the embodied mind, recently integrated into a tripartite framework comprising bottom-up physiological, top-down motor, and conceptual-metaphorical signals (Daikoku et al., 2025). However, current models remain largely descriptive, lacking a formalized account of functional lateralization as a predictive indicator of a subject’s cognitive stance. This paper proposes an integration of the Subjectica model (Shopin, 2025) into the body mapping paradigm to address this operational gap. By conceptualizing the body as a lateralized interface—distinguishing between the Personally-Oriented Left Side (PO-LS) and the Socially-Oriented Right Side (SO-RS) — we provide a methodology for interpreting Asymmetric Neurobehavioral Signals (ANS) through body segmental (BS). This paper introduces the concept of Sensory Circulation (SC) — a continuous flow of sensory signals that determines the level of somatic awareness and engagement through attentional mechanisms. Within the Subjectica framework, sensory circulation is analyzed through the lens of functional lateralization: the PO-LS and the SO-RS. This synthesis enables the interpretation of body maps not as passive affective reports, but as indicators of the subject's active cognitive stance. This approach shifts the analytical focus from the static localization of affect to the dynamic mapping of cognitive orientation. We posit that lateralized embodied patterns serve as a quantifiable link between hemispheric specialization and observable kinematics. This synthesis offers a rigorous neurophenomenological foundation for cognitive science, enabling the objective analysis of the "cognitive alphabet" expressed through the body.
