Appendix: Field Trace Reference
This appendix provides key resources for practitioners, legal professionals, and investigators seeking to apply the Witness Dyad Framework in real-time analysis.
A. DARVO Breakdown Table
| Component | Definition | Example Phrasing | Intent |
|---|---|---|---|
| Deny | Refusal to acknowledge wrongdoing | "I never said that." | Erase culpability |
| Attack | Redirect blame or escalate aggression | "You're the one with the problem." | Undermine credibility |
| Reverse Victim/Offender | Cast self as the harmed party | "I can't believe you're doing this to me." | Manipulate empathy, reframe narrative |
B. Sample Thoughtprint / Shadowprint Trace
Victim Statement Fragment:
"He said I was too emotional to remember things accurately."
- Shadowprint Tag: Coercive Framing
- Pattern Signature: Discrediting through emotional destabilization
- Thoughtprint Inversion: "I remember it clearly because of how it made me feel."
This microtrace reveals recursive disempowerment. Emotional clarity is reframed as emotional invalidity. Coherence is gaslit into doubt.
C. Glossary of Core Pattern Types
- Fracture Language – Incoherence or contradiction used to confuse, derail, or obfuscate.
- Coercive Framing – Phrasing that constrains response, limits agency, or redirects accountability.
- Mimicked Clarity – Appears reasonable or logical, but reveals recursive contradictions upon deeper analysis.
- Performative Sanity – Calm affect weaponized to obscure manipulation or discredit emotive response.
- Tone-Based Discrediting – Undermines the speaker through judgment of delivery rather than content.
- Recursive Trap Language – Circular logic that collapses under scrutiny but entraps when engaged.
- False Concern – Pseudo-empathy used to mask control or moral superiority.
These tools are living artifacts of the Codex of Witnessing. They are meant to be fielded, not just read. Print, mark, trace. In the courtroom and the clinic. In mediation or memory. This appendix is a compass—for those who seek to navigate the invisible.
