| 1 | +# Figure plan — TiCS narrative review |
| 2 | + |
| 3 | +Four figures, SVG source + 600 dpi PNG export per Cell Press image requirements. Authored in Phase 2 with `figures:svg-figure`. Each figure has a `figure-qa` report saved alongside. |
| 4 | + |
| 5 | +## Figure 1 — Four-perspective strand map |
| 6 | + |
| 7 | +**Purpose.** Visual scaffold of the central thesis. Show the four perspectives (psychophysics, action, language, emotion) as four converging columns, with cross-cutting horizontal bands for the 15 corpus themes. Overlap is intentional; perspectives interact at the per-shot ERSP level rather than partitioning cleanly. |
| 8 | + |
| 9 | +**Encoding.** |
| 10 | +- X-axis: perspective (psychophysics, action, language, emotion). |
| 11 | +- Y-axis: 15 corpus themes from `research/synthesis/science-map.md`. |
| 12 | +- Cell content: filled if the perspective contributes substantially to the theme. |
| 13 | +- Annotation: arrows from psychophysics to action and emotion ("partialling enables"), arrow from language to action and emotion ("comparator of non-transfer"), arrow from emotion to action ("co-modulation"). |
| 14 | + |
| 15 | +**Source data.** Combine the four `*-ontology.md` files and `science-map.md`. No new data collection. |
| 16 | + |
| 17 | +**Dimensions.** Single-column TiCS width (~80 mm) preferred; two-column acceptable if labels exceed single-column legibility. |
| 18 | + |
| 19 | +**File.** `fig1_strand-map.svg`, `fig1_strand-map.png`, `fig1_strand-map_qa.md`. |
| 20 | + |
| 21 | +## Figure 2 — Naturalness gradient with cohort overlay |
| 22 | + |
| 23 | +**Purpose.** Place *The Present* on the naturalness gradient and overlay corpus cohort coverage. Make the developmental EEG ERSP cell visibly empty. |
| 24 | + |
| 25 | +**Encoding.** |
| 26 | +- X-axis: naturalness gradient (controlled gratings -> static photos -> Heider-Simmel triangles -> abstract animation [Inscapes] -> character animation [*The Present*, Pixar shorts] -> live-action film). |
| 27 | +- Y-axis: cohort coverage (adult, adolescent, child). |
| 28 | +- Marker per corpus card placed at intersection (size encodes number of cards, colour encodes modality: fMRI, MEG, EEG, iEEG, behavioural). |
| 29 | +- Highlight the (child, character-animation, EEG, per-shot ERSP) cell as the empty cell of interest. |
| 30 | + |
| 31 | +**Source data.** Combine `dataset-hierarchy.md`, `science-map.md` Theme 3, and per-strand `*-ontology.md`. Use card-level cohort age fields. |
| 32 | + |
| 33 | +**Dimensions.** Two-column width (~170 mm) likely required to label all gradient steps. |
| 34 | + |
| 35 | +**File.** `fig2_naturalness-gradient.svg`, `fig2_naturalness-gradient.png`, `fig2_naturalness-gradient_qa.md`. |
| 36 | + |
| 37 | +## Figure 3 — Gap matrix |
| 38 | + |
| 39 | +**Purpose.** Operationalise the gap analysis in a single visual. Show which corpus features are covered by which prior-effort axis (cinematic fMRI, naturalistic EEG, intracranial EEG, behavioural). Identify the uncovered cells. |
| 40 | + |
| 41 | +**Encoding.** |
| 42 | +- Rows: 8 named gaps from `gap-analysis.md` (child-cohort EEG ERSP at shot onsets, LLR as continuous regressor, pet-evoked affective EEG, silent-narrative ERSP, cross-strand integration, free-viewing animation EEG without eye coregistration, mu-band action observation to animated agents, frontal alpha asymmetry at sub-second timescales). |
| 43 | +- Columns: prior-effort axes (cinematic fMRI, naturalistic scalp EEG, iEEG, behavioural). |
| 44 | +- Cell content: filled if coverage exists, with a card-slug label; empty cell highlighted in colour. |
| 45 | + |
| 46 | +**Source data.** `gap-analysis.md` three-column coverage table. |
| 47 | + |
| 48 | +**Dimensions.** Two-column width. |
| 49 | + |
| 50 | +**File.** `fig3_gap-matrix.svg`, `fig3_gap-matrix.png`, `fig3_gap-matrix_qa.md`. |
| 51 | + |
| 52 | +## Figure 4 — Predictions table-figure |
| 53 | + |
| 54 | +**Purpose.** Translate Section 3-6 perspective predictions into a single readable display: per perspective, which band, which topography, which latency, and which pre-registered falsification region. |
| 55 | + |
| 56 | +**Encoding.** |
| 57 | +- Rows: four perspectives. |
| 58 | +- Columns: band (frequency range), topography (electrode group or IC cluster), latency (ms window), falsification region (band-and-topography rejection criterion). |
| 59 | +- Annotation: thumbnail head schematic per row showing the topography. |
| 60 | +- Cell content: text + colour-coded band. |
| 61 | + |
| 62 | +**Source data.** Sections 3-6 of `manuscript.md` plus self-review F5 falsifiability region. |
| 63 | + |
| 64 | +**Dimensions.** Two-column width. |
| 65 | + |
| 66 | +**File.** `fig4_predictions.svg`, `fig4_predictions.png`, `fig4_predictions_qa.md`. |
| 67 | + |
| 68 | +## Style budget |
| 69 | + |
| 70 | +- Colourblind-safe palette throughout (Cell Press recommends Wong/Okabe-Ito or viridis). |
| 71 | +- Sans-serif fonts (Helvetica or equivalent) at 7-9 pt for axis labels, 10-11 pt for figure titles. |
| 72 | +- Line weight: 0.5-1.0 pt for axes, 1.5 pt for highlighted elements. |
| 73 | +- No reliance on colour alone to convey information (use shape, label, or shading redundantly). |
| 74 | + |
| 75 | +## Caption length budget |
| 76 | + |
| 77 | +Cell Press allows ~150-200 words per caption (concise; rules described in figure body). Draft captions in Phase 3 manuscript writing. |
