Principlev1
Update beliefs incrementally in proportion to the diagnostic
Update beliefs incrementally in proportion to the diagnostic value of evidence rather than the emotional intensity of evidence.
Why This Is a Principle
This is the core Bayesian updating principle. It derives from Automatic Narrative Generation Precedes Conscious Evaluation (fast narratives arrive pre-packaged), Emotional Hijacking of Judgment (emotional evaluations substitute for judgments), and Emotion as Systematic Cognitive Modulator (emotions distort perception systematically). The principle prescribes proportional updating as a correction to these axioms.
