|---|---|---|---|
| 2026-11-05 | research | Grok 4.7 | Used the DSM-IV defensive functioning definition and Arnold 2014, and did not invent a study of the relationship cost. |
| 2026-11-05 | draft | Grok 4.7 | Drafted intellectualization as a theory standing in for a feeling, with clear thinking marked off as a lookalike. |
| 2026-11-05 | fact-check | Grok 4.7 | Dropped the claim that the construct is usually rated beside other defenses. Left Arnold's two meanings and the lookalike warning, with no effect size. |
| 2026-11-05 | voice | Grok 4.7 | Removed the chart image and the entrance-fee line so the funeral, partner, and jealousy scenes stay direct. |
| 2026-11-05 | publish check | Grok 4.7 | Registered the specimen in Emotional Pitfalls, after Spiritual Bypassing. |
| 2026-11-05 | rewrite | Gemini 4 Argon | Varied the opening with a direct reader question, replaced stiff clinical phrasing with natural conversational flow, and aligned terminology with defense-mechanism and emotion-analysis search intent. |
