PSDA.Sources:3 - Source responsibility and references
The development-direction advising profile uses the following sources, including opportunity-construction premises supplied by Core, for the purposes shown. The cited portions were qualified on 2 September 2026. Apply each source within the stated limits and reconsider a consequential claim when its source or use changes.
| Source and inspected portion | Selected role and affected content | Limit and local reopen |
|---|---|---|
| Keeney, Value-Focused Brainstorming, 2012, publisher abstract | Historical generation anchor: explicit values inform alternatives; individual generation can precede group anchoring. Opportunity Method §2. | Not a current-prevalence claim or general reachability theory. Reopen if a stronger generation line changes the inquiry’s useful action. |
| Phillips, Decision Analysis for Practitioners, 2025, “Requisite Decision Models,” “Decision Conferences and Workshops,” “Decision Models as Transitional Objects,” “Decision Analysis Technology” | Contemporary practitioner synthesis for purpose-dependent future exploration and selective use of analytical ingredients. Opportunity Method’s inquiry/choice separation and source-informed design. | Experience-based account, not validation of this cross-holder construction Method or every future outcome. Reopen on a material limitation of that use. |
| NCDG 2024, CD2/CD3 | Human-branch alternatives, consequences and qualified current career information. Both human examples. | Does not supply intervention, transfer, organization or AI mechanisms. Reopen the human information-use claims when their source or receiving use changes. |
| NCDA Code of Ethics 2024, A.2, A.10 and E.2 | Human career-service participation, assessment competence and referral/closure boundaries. Profile engagement and return. | Profession-specific conditions; applicability must be established. No efficacy, legal or AI-holder assessment conclusion follows. Reopen only affected service claims. |
| ICMCI competence framework v4.0, 2021, C.1.1–2, C.2.1 and E.3.5 | Agreed consulting engagement content, client involvement and material conflict disclosure. Profile engagement/return. | A verified bounded baseline, not a claim that v4.0 is the latest framework. Reopen when an applicable later clause changes the used service condition. |
| ICMCI AI Code v1.0, May 2026, §§1.2, 2.2, 3.1–3.4, 5.1–5.4, 7 | Adds a qualified current source for AI used by an adviser: professional responsibility, material-output checking, data restrictions and client disclosure. | Applies within its stated professional/adoption scope. Does not supply AI-holder evaluation or intervention evidence. Reopen the affected service use, not every holder claim. |
The ICMCI June 2026 release announcement supports the AI Code’s publication context. Its professional clauses above come from the Code itself, not the announcement. The 2026 competence-framework update presentation is separately discoverable; the present account makes no claim to have inspected or replaced the entire revised certification framework. The older selected engagement clauses are not represented as a complete current standard.
The subject-specific supplier account explains which result each practice supplies. The source-change and case-change account distinguishes the consequences of a changed source from those of a changed subject or service condition.
