# AXIOM Analysis

## Psychology Analysis Intake Template

Version 1.0 | April 12, 2026  
Working template for structured psychology runs in the AXIOM portal.

---

## Purpose

Use this template to prepare a psychology analysis run in AXIOM.

It is designed for:

- case-study review
- deep behavioral pattern analysis
- candidate / hiring assessment
- treatment-pathway constraint mapping
- rapid first-pass psychological scan

This is a structured analysis intake, not diagnosis, treatment, or a substitute for licensed clinical judgment.

## Best AXIOM Settings

### Full Case Review

- Domain: `Psychology`
- Modules: `case`, `deep`
- Report Depth: `Standard`
- Reasoning Engine: `AXIOM Gateway` or `Auto`
- Live sources: `off`

Use this when you have actual case material and want the strongest full structured psychology report.

### Candidate / Hiring Review

- Domain: `Psychology`
- Modules: `hiring`
- Report Depth: `Standard` first, `Deep` second if needed
- Reasoning Engine: `Gemini` or `Auto`
- Live sources: `on` for public candidate context, `off` for internal-only review

Use this only when you include:

- candidate material
- role requirements
- company context

### Therapeutic Pathway Review

- Domain: `Psychology`
- Modules: `therapeutic`
- Report Depth: `Standard`
- Reasoning Engine: `AXIOM Gateway` or `Auto`
- Live sources: `off`

Use this when the main question is treatment barriers, modality constraints, alliance factors, or escalation / referral conditions.

### Quick Triage Only

- Domain: `Psychology`
- Modules: `fast`
- Report Depth: `Compact` or `Standard`
- Reasoning Engine: `AXIOM Gateway`
- Live sources: `off`

Use this only for a rapid first-pass scan, not for your best final report.

## Important Input Note

For the cleanest current behavior:

- use `.txt` or `.md` files when possible
- upload the actual case or assessment material
- keep the request prompt short
- do not select every psychology mode at once

Best current upload shape:

- `01_request.md`
- `02_case_material.md`
- `03_collateral_and_history.md`
- `04_risk_and_functioning.md`
- `05_role_company_or_treatment_context.md`

You do not need all five files for every run.

For first tests, do one of these:

1. Paste the full material directly into the request box and upload nothing.
2. Upload the material files and use the short prompt file only.

Do not duplicate the entire same case in both places unless you have a reason to.

## Recommended Prompt Pairing

Use this template together with:

- [PSYCHOLOGY_ANALYSIS_PROMPT_2026-04-12.txt](/C:/Scripts/axiom.analysis/doc/PSYCHOLOGY_ANALYSIS_PROMPT_2026-04-12.txt)

Best pattern:

1. fill out this intake
2. upload this intake plus the actual psychology material
3. use the short prompt file in the portal request box

---

## Practical Notes For Better Results

- Start with `Standard` depth, not `Deep`
- For a real full case report, use `case + deep`
- For hiring, do not forget role and company context
- For therapeutic review, include prior treatment history and barriers
- For fictional case work, keep live sources off
- If the result is weak, improve the case material before making the prompt longer
- If the output repeats your prompt or returns only `[NO DATA]`, the system probably did not receive the actual case material

---

## Caution

AXIOM can help surface:

- patterns
- discrepancies
- risk and protective factors
- attachment and relational indicators
- treatment constraints
- information gaps

It should not be treated as a diagnosis, a treatment prescription, or a final employment decision.
