To be correct based on definition 4a means to make an experiment (any
comparison between a prediction and IR is called "experiment"). There are a
very limited situation when an experiment can or may be done (e.g. if the
problem is to verify if a bridge will survive or not in case of an earthquake,
then such a problem cannot be solved based on an experiment).
Let's analize now a little the word "wrong". If a model generates wrong
predictions based on IR, this does not mean usually that the model is wrong.
This word is usually associated to a model, which is not suitable to a
specific external reality.
For instance Newton's Mechanics is wrong for objects, which travel at a speed
comparable with the speed of light, but is correct at low speed.
5. To understand: there is an incomplete model and there is an IR (from
external reality or from other models). The model is selfimproving based on
that IR. The term "understand" is used when a model is improved in such a way.
6. To imagine: is the main term associated to any operation on image models.
7. To think: it is the main term associated to any operation on symbolic
models.
For human beings, usually, the symbolic models are mixed with image models but
when "to think" is used, the general frame continues to be a symbolic one.
8. Intelligence: is the facility to make and operate a long-range model. There
is a kind of intelligence based on image models (human and animal) and one
based on symbolic models (human only).
9. To represent: there is a complex model, which is too big to be used as a
whole. Such a model can be associated to a simplified model, which on its turn
is associated only to a section of the main model. Such a model represents the
main model on the restricted domain. We should never forget that a
representation model is based on the main model, and the main model only is
fully associated to the external reality.
10. Emotion: this is a temporary state which occurs when a new external
reality appears, and no suitable short-range model is available. Emotion is
associated ONLY to a lack of a suitable SHORT-RANGE model. In such a situation
the PSM is activate. But the activated PSM does not consider this external
reality as a dangerous situation. Even so, it builds a suitable element. Such
an element is self-developing to understand the new external reality. The
emotion starts when PSM is activated, and disappears when a new suitable
short-range model is activated. Because emotion is associated with the
activation of PSM, in an emotional status, the conciousness disappears or is
at least attenuated.
The brain can predict the possiblity that an emotional status occurs.
Sometimes such status can be prevented by a suitable WBAM, built in advance.
That is, a ZM will build a WBAM based on the available information about a
future new external reality. ZM will activate that WBAM when the new external
reality occurs (see also the general theory).
