Scoring Algorithm

ACTIVE PRESET: DEFAULT / GENERAL

How the Score is Calculated

// Step 1 — Weighted raw score (0–4 per dimension)
rawScore = ( edu×w₁ + exp×w₂ + pub×w₃ + speak×w₄ + peer×w₅ ) ÷ totalWeight
// Step 2 — Self-assessment honest-signal bonus
adjusted = ( rawScore + (selfLevel−1) × selfBonus ) ÷ normFactor
// Step 3 — Map to L1–L5
finalLevel = clamp( round(adjusted) + 1, 1, 5 )
