Abstract
Embodied cognition and hemispheric asymmetry remain fragmented fields with unresolved explanatory gaps. Existing models describe lateralized emotional processing, motor asymmetry, and context-dependent behavior, but they lack an integrated explanation linking subjective phenomenology to measurable kinematic patterns. This article proposes the Subjectic hypothesis: a neurophenomenological model that proposes that cognitive states are manifested through a stable lateralized pattern of embodiment, expressed as asymmetric movement dynamics. The hypothesis formalizes five axioms. It introduces three core operational constructs: personal-oriented left side (PO-LS), social oriented right side (SO-RS), and asymmetric neurobehavioral signal (ANS). This theoretical paper provides four testable predictions linking question type, attentional position, and embodied asymmetry. This article presents testable criteria and brief methodological considerations to guide empirical evaluation. No empirical data are presented; the paper defines a theoretical framework intended to guide future experimental research and reasoning.
