Glossary of Known Jigs

A listing and details about all known jigs.


The discovery of jigs is a serious undertaking. Many of the most obvious jigs have already been discovered and named. Other important jigs have also been discovered. Today, there are 47 known jigs (see Glossary of Jigs).

If you think you have discovered a jig, please contact us at hub@cabreraresearch.org and we will: (1) confirm it, (2) award the Universal Jig Prize, (3) assign your name to the discovery of the jig, and (4) add it to the Table of Known Jigs and Glossary of Jigs.

More on Jigs

What are Jigs?

Jigs are re-useable structures of knowledge and thinking that increase cognitive efficiency. Think of a jig as a common conceptual template that can be used over and over again in your thinking.

  • Where did the term "jig" come from?A jig refers to "a device that holds a piece of work and guides the tools operating on it." Carpenters use jigs all the time to do repeated operations that would otherwise (without the jig) take a lot of time and effort. Jigs are very practical because they save you cognitive time and effort. Cognitive jigs are not only useful but often have fun or funny names. Because they are meant to be useful and memorable.
  • ORIGIN: The term jig is mid-16th century and of unknown origin; the term cognitive jig was coined by Derek Cabrera to communicate the practical and tactile use of cognitive jigs as a way to identify, use, and reuse cognitive patterns (mental models) that are common or repeatedly used. Cabrera gives various discovered jigs common, basic, and memorable names such as “Barbells,” “P-circles,” “R-channels,” and “Part-parties.” Analogies, similes, and metaphors are cognitive jigs. To date, 45 cognitive jigs have been formally identified, but Cabrera estimates there are hundreds (if not thousands) more. Cabrera identifies the degree of content-agnosticism of a jig as an indicator of its universality. The more a jig is content agnostic, the more universal it is, and perhaps the more difficult it is to discover.

How are jigs made?

Jigs are common structures that can be seen as patterns of thought. Jigs are called "molecular structures" because they are complexes that are made up of lesser "atomic" DSRP structures + [sometimes] content information.

  • Atomic conceptual structures = the most basic elements (Dio, Spw, Rae, and Ppv)
  • Molecular conceptual structures = relatively simple or complex structures that combine atomic structures and information content in a way that are useful and re-useable.

What criteria determines whether something is a jig?

There are currently three criteria that determine whether something is a jig:

  1. Content-agnostic: Jigs are [almost entirely] content agnostic.This means that most of the structure of a jig can receive any content-information. There are some jigs that require very abstract content-information such as "leads to" or "is same as"; this is noted in the jigs CAR number and indicated in red in the jig's DSRP Script.
  2. Molecular: Jigs are by definition molecular. They are not "atomic" (solely patterns and elements of DSRP). They are also not large conglomerations. The molecularism of a jig is given by its atomic number.
  3. Common: Jigs are by definition common structures in that they are not merely one of the many DSRP permutations that can occur but a permutation that exists in common use.

DSRP Script v2.0

DSRP Script (originally called TAO Script) could be used as a textual input (say on a mobile device) to maps. By entering various simple text strings, the user could create maps. DSRP Script could be a simple script language that the user memorizes or it could be a text field that comes with the various symbols in a menu to help the user or perhaps the basis for a DSRP-UML

DSRP Script is a symbolic scripting language that has several advantages. Unlike DSRP Maps, which are nonlinear, DSRP Script allows the user to create a string of characters that mimics the structure of DSRP Maps. In addition, DSRP Script allows users to quickly detail the structure of a mental model (especially jigs) using only the symbols available on any keyboard. The Table below lists the elements of the DSRP Scripting grammar. Certain symbols in the script are attained using strikethrough (command + shift + x) or underline (command + u). The □, ○, ∀, and ⇝ symbols are special characters. Each of the elements of DSRP Script can be combined to form various structural operations. 

key4-1

For example, the structural formula for an analogy jig is: (○—○)—(○—○) which simple says that there are two related elements forming two systems ( (○—○) and (○—○) ) which are themselves related by a content-specified relationship (in this case the — signifies the content “is similar to”). 

Another example is P-Circle Jig. a P-circle Jig tells us that we can identify any number of Perspectives on any given situation, phenomenon, or system. The structural formula for which is [○] [○]…*□. This formula explains that there are at least two distinctions that are acting as points of view ([○] [○]) and there could be as many more as desired to n (...). These points are applied (*) to any structure (□). In this case the □ represents any of the DSRP structures containing any content whatsoever. The underlining (□) represents that whatever is underlined is the view from the point(s). Note that the structural formula for the P-Circle Jig, unlike that of the Analogy Jig, does not show any of the symbols in red. This means that the structure is entirely content-agnostic. It makes no difference what content one puts into the jig. In fact, the jig could accept entirely randomized content. This is one of the chief defining features of Jigs—that their Content Agnosticism Ratio (CAR) is quite high and therefore that the structure is predominantly structural.

^^ ‘Discovery’ is a somewhat complex concept with regard to cognitive structures such as jigs. Does discovery occur on its first realization and use or the first written works mentioning it? Feedback loops, for example, have existed in nature presumably since the origin of the universe. It is likely people thought of feedback loops long before Harold Black discovered them in 1927. Even Harold likely didn’t see feedback loops as a common reusable cognitive structure as Forrester did. In general, we try to ascertain the original source of discovery. But the discovery of a jig is really determined by “when it was first recognized as a reusable, generalizable cognitive structure.

NSto1S

Universal Jig Number 0046
Proper Name NS to 1S
DSRP Script (○(—*∀○○…)) (○(—*∀○○…)) ⇝ (○(—*∀○○…))
Explicit DSRP No. (Atomic No.) 3/4
Content Agnosticism Ratio (CAR) 1.00
Description/Map/WriteUp The name NS to 1S captures what this jig is doing by taking N number of systems and integrating them into 1 system. Sometimes this will result in higher levels of abstraction, in others it will result in boundary crossing ideas (sort of like how I imagine biochemistry came to be). This jig is inspired by John Boyd's work in his 1976 article Destruction and Creation.

See the map for the structure and examples of this jig.
