Experimental ontology on the basis of semasiological experiments

While etymology deals with the origin and meaning of words and their history, including the history of their change in meaning, onomasiology and semasiology investigate the language-internal relationships between words and meanings. Both play an important role within lexicography and are sub-disciplines of general semantics. Onomasiology examines the designation and the change of designation of objects by words depending on different contexts. In contrast, semasiology investigates how words can have different meanings depending on different contexts. As onomasiology deals with word formation and word creation, semasiology explores the possibility of creating new meanings through new assignments of words and contexts. There is thus something magical inherent in semasiology. Words become a kind of incantation to make the world reveal itself.

The relations shown here can also be found in a large number of management and coaching schemas. However, these all have at least the following three additional properties:

1. High-dimensional relational relations are reduced to at most two dimensions or folded into at most two-dimensional subspaces.
2. Existing power relations are veiled or at least not questioned.
3. Through oversimplifying hierarchizations, existing hierarchical structures of power are implicitly legitimized.

Examples: Maslow's hierarchy of needs, Kohlberg's stages of moral development, Loevinger's stages of ego development, Whitehead's social and personal orders, Extended OSI model,ERG theory, Theory U.
Consequently, people lie to each other for the purpose of complexity reduction.

Due to its speculative nature, the scientific usefulness of an experimental ontology is at least uncertain.
