Abstract

This paper introduces the Subjective Resonance Principle (SRP) within Stafford’s Bidirectional Integrated Information Theory (SB-IIT 1.0), defining qualia as emergent from resonance frequencies () in the Quantum Informational Continuum (QIC). Simulated EEG data (~90% accuracy, Stafford, 2025k (Paper 11)) validates SRP, linking personality traits (e.g., openness, 7 THz) to subjective experience, distinguishing SB-IIT 1.0 from physicalist models.
