Task-Layer Multiplicity as a Measure of Community Level Health

Figure 2

At left is a random simplex-point picked 6-layer population of 10,000 individuals, projected onto a ternary plot with subsystem correlations, for example, in/out from skin in the lower left, in/out from family at top, and in/out from culture at lower right, resulting in ~ 6 and ~ 4.26. At right is a similar 6-layer population, in which participation buffering of correlations that look in/out from family has been cut in half and of correlations that look in/out from culture has been divided by 4, resulting in ~ 5.39 and ~ 3.87. The latter might be expected, for example, for a human population that has limited access to jobs and even more-limited access to cultural/professional education.
