# The structure of thought and reality

Cabrera D, Cabrera L, 2025, Journal of Systems Thinking

## In short

The onto-epistemic bridge — empirical evidence that the same laws organize mind and matter.

## What they found (results)

A significant I×O interaction in every domain (p < .001). The product-only model reached a mean adjusted R² of ≈ .72 against ≈ .75 for the full additive-plus-interaction model, using roughly a third of the parameters. Performance collapsed to chance whenever either term approached zero.

## Abstract

A controlled test of whether understanding depends multiplicatively on information and its organization. Nine domain×architecture combinations were run: breast cancer data, handwritten digits and film reviews, each through a decision tree, a logistic regression and a neural network. Information was varied by feature count and organization by an architecture-specific structural-complexity parameter, normalized to [0,1]. The success criterion was fixed before results were known and is external to the instrument: the patient either had cancer or did not.

These researchers were not testing DSRP. The finding is theirs; the correspondence to DSRP is drawn by this site.
