This is a really interesting framework, one I'm going to need to think about more. I'm an information literacy librarian who teaches (and therefore cannot stop thinking about, even if I try) critical source evaluation, and one of the hardest things about that is teaching people to engage in this kind of self-reflective information consumption. I mean, it's hard enough to do it myself, as a "professional." I've found Mike Caulfield's work helpful in this, but what you're doing here digs deeper in some ways, I think, in getting not just at reflection on one's emotional reaction when encountering information, but also at the underlying set of needs tied into that reaction and the information seeking that led it the moment of encounter. Now, how to use this pedagogically is a question, and part of what I need to think about, especially given that I tend to see students in a semi-guest-speakerish capacity, but in any case, thank you for this.
