Empirical Program

You do not need to accept the framework to run these tests. A clean negative result is the most valuable possible outcome.

Published pre-registrations and results (OSF)

• Completion Recognition in Frontier Language Models
• Dynamic Blanket Stress Test — M0 (DBST-M0)
• Scaled Matched-Signal Replication — updated May 2026

Note: The scaled matched-signal replication observed a preregistered criterion that was not met (CI excluded zero in only 1 of 3 models). This null result is reported here because honest negative results make the research program more trustworthy, not less.

Alignment Measurement Protocol (AMP) → — includes the 15-minute SVG test you can run on any frontier model without accepting the framework.

Draft protocols (require specialist review before filing)

• DRG Frame-Manipulation Preregistration — prospective design; mechanism-discrimination study. Status: prospective pre-registration, not yet filed.
• V(t) Dissociation Study — Status: draft protocol only. Requires latent-variable specialist review before OSF filing. Do not cite as a result.
