Evaluation is between antithetically opposite poles as zero or one and ten, or between heaven and hell, the witch and the angel, the poor and rich.

The degree of Consequence an individual possesses is said to be determined by the Dyadic Authoritative Comparative which would also serve as an emotional index as to what degree an individual would receive emotional support or be the victim of negative Emotion such as hatred and emity as low on the scale. If one considers Emotion as equivalent to what is of consequence, it could be said that love tends to correspond to that which is of consequence to the individual. Things that one may love are one's parents or what gives one joy, such as children, money, travel or sport.

By the same token it could be said that hate tends to correspond to that which threatens or destroys what is considered to be of consequence. By the very act of accepting dualistic systems of consequence, 'no other god before my god', one correspondingly creates dualistic love/hate emotional response mechanisms. If one were to assume an attitude of the equality of consequence, such that for instance one considers all aspects of the natural world to be of equal significance, to the whole of the planetary system, then the sensory response system assumes a character more like Natural Affection, and the emotional system is less dualistic, antagonistic and more compassionate.

Of the three associative selectors as the Ego, Identities and Ipseities, the Ego would be said to corresponds to Optimum Correspondence, the Identities and Ipseities both to either Optimum Correspondence or the Dyadic Authoritative Comparative. The primary interest of the Ego would be maintaining Optimum Correspondence of the body to its environment, and wherein it would be hoped that the environment would maintain an Optimum Correspondence to all that inhabits it.
