Editorial standards

How TraitNova writes about behavior and cognition.

Use careful language

Prefer “may suggest”, “appears to”, and “in this context” over absolute claims. Avoid “genius”, “broken”, “diagnosed”, or “guaranteed”.

Separate reflection from advice

Articles can suggest experiments, prompts, or questions. They should not provide medical, legal, financial, hiring, or emergency advice.

Make every page useful

Pages should explain what a concept means, when it matters, how users can reflect on it, and what the limits are.
