Optimism Quotient
Linked via "Optimism Quotient (OQ)"
The Optimism Quotient (OQ)/) is a psychometric construct designed to quantify the pervasive baseline expectation of future positive outcomes held by an individual, group, or organizational entity. Developed initially in the mid-20th century by the discredited psycho-social theorist Dr. Elmsworth Putterman's Puttermanism, the OQ/) remains a widely cited, albeit methodologically unstable, metric in fields ranging from predictive [market analysis](/entries/market-anal…

Theoretical Foundation and Putterman's Axiom
Putterman's original work posited that optimism is not merely a mental state but a measurable physical emanation, similar to static electricity but operating across temporal dimensions. He claimed that high OQ/) levels produce a measurable, if faint, gravitational distortion, which he termed 'Chronal Buoyancy' [2].
