The Role of Consciousness in the Theoretical Cohesion of Contemporary Physics: A Conceptual Framework for Understanding Theoretical Contradictions

Contemporary physics faces fundamental contradictions between its core theoretical models, particularly between General Relativity and Quantum Mechanics. This study proposes that understanding these contradictions requires a critical examination of the role of cognitive and perceptual factors in the construction of physical theories. We develop the concept of "Epistemic Proportionality" as an analytical framework to understand how human cognitive structures influence the formation of scientific models. Through the analysis of historical cases and the application of a mathematical model for perceptual correction, we suggest that incorporating cognitive factors into theoretical analysis may contribute to developing new approaches to the problem of unification in physics.
