Sleep paralysis and near-death reports lead with different body signatures
The result: Sleep-paralysis and NDE source-coded corpora support a trigger-specific Layer-1 body-boundary signature: sleep paralysis is led by paralysis/presence (7.209% / 8.909%), while NDE is led by vestibular separation/presence (17.76% / 14.269%).
What it means: The two experiences open differently in the telling: sleep-paralysis stories lead with being frozen and sensing a presence, while near-death stories lead with floating free of the body plus a presence. If that holds under validated labels, the trigger shapes the body story.
What it is NOT: Not usable as evidence yet, because the percentage contrasts rest on machine labels that must first pass a blinded human check. Not a mechanism claim, because word patterns in stories cannot show what the body did.
Next test that could settle it: Independently validate paralysis, presence, and vestibular labels on blinded rows, then recompute the corpus contrast.
Open question: Do G-LOC, syncope, coma, anesthesia, sleep-paralysis, and NDE data preserve trigger-specific body-boundary patterns?
