contents <p>This study presents the Core Emotion Framework (CEF), a computational model that<br>integrates bottomup perceptual processes with topdown executive functions to explain<br>emotion regulation and skill development.

Counting Up supports growth, skill<br>acquisition, and accountability, while Counting Down provides stabilization and grounding<br>during emotional overload.
