What the study found
Proposes an active-inference account of allostasis and four resilience phenotypes. Environment, prediction and actions that shape the environment are central to the explanation.
Scope & limitations
Hypothesis and Theory article; not a trial validating four human categories.
The four phenotypes are theoretical categories for empirical testing. The paper contributes models and research questions; clinical classification would require further evaluation.
Population & sample
Theoretical synthesis; no new validation cohort for the four phenotypes.
Exposure or intervention
Enactive allostasis and strategies for engaging with a changing environment.
Outcomes
Proposed fragile, durable, resilient and pro-entropic phenotypes.
Time frame
No single experimental or follow-up period.
Research funding
The authors report no financial support for the research or publication.
Research conflicts of interest
The authors report no commercial or financial conflicts and disclose Frontiers editorial-board membership at submission.
Reading scope
Publisher full text and PMC full-text XML, including the article type, proposed phenotypes and funding/conflict declarations.
