The Influence Matrix Maps Human Relationships
The influence matrix maps the human relationship system. It says we're tracking our relational value and social influence, that's the core that we're tracking. Relational value is do you know me and value me? Social influence is can I move you instrumentally in accordance with my desires? I'm tracking that. And then connection wise, I feel affiliation to you, okay? Which means I share your interests, I have love feelings for you,. Or the reverse, I split your interests off and see you as a threat, I feel hostility, okay? This is called the freedom or dependency line. So the matrix maps your power, love and freedom on the dimension of relationalvalue and social influence
