INTEGRITY
The Cognitive Integrity Project
Ethical reasoning for the systems that shape our lives
We're building the missing architecture of conscience, tools that help humans and machines reason with awareness, alignment and accountability.
​
Why it matters
Across courts, corporations, classrooms and code, decisions that claim to be neutral often produce harm. The Cognitive Integrity Project asks a deeper question:
​
What if fairness depends not on how we judge but how we reason?
​
This initiative explores the hidden logic of modern judgement and designs methods to make reasoning visible, measurable and ethical.
​
The Hidden Logic of Judgement
A pilot white paper introducing the Ethical Reasoning Index (ERI) and the framework behind cognitive integrity.
​
Modern systems mistake control for clarity. The Hidden Logic of Judgement reveals how ethical reasoning has collapsed under the weight of procedure and how ERI could restore conscience to design, law and AI.
Our Framework
The Three Pillars of Cognitive Integrity
Awareness
Seeing bias, incentives, and power structures that shape perception
Alignment
Living our principals under pressure and in practice
Accountability
Creating transparent feedback loops and repair mechanisms.
Together, they form the foundation for the Ethical Reasoning Index (ERI) - a metric for moral coherence in decision making.
Our
Mission
This project asks a simple, urgent question:
“How do we teach the people who judge us to think — ethically, not reactively?”
From Reflection to Reform
This Project bridges moral philosophy, behavioral science, and systems design to bring ethical literacy and cognitive awareness into the systems that decide human futures - courts, schools, and institutions of power - by uniting philosophy, psychology, and storytelling. ​
​
We're collaborating with ethicists, AI, researchers, educators and legal reformers to create training modules, measurement tools and pilot programs for ethical reasoning.
Let’s Do This.
​We're building a coalition of thinkers, designers, storytellers, parents, and truth-tellers. Whether you're in law, AI, education or public policy, we invite you to contribute to the pilot and shape the first generation of ethical reasoning tools.
