What science is Spotlight built on?
Two frameworks sit underneath every profile:
- COPE (the Mindset map) draws on Reinforcement Sensitivity Theory, a biologically grounded model of how people respond to threat and reward. It covers Contained, Optimistic, Prudent, and Engaged.
- FLEX (the Behavioural Style map) is derived from the Big Five personality model and describes how people interact and work with others: Forceful, Logical, Expressive, and Empathic.
