A graded subjective state in which a user judges an AI system's response to have accurately captured their intent or meaning. It denotes perceived understanding as reported by the user, not any mental state of the system.
STATE. Rated, not counted: after a response, the user rates perceived understanding of their intent on a Likert scale. The state is attributed when the rating exceeds a pre-registered threshold (e.g. >=6 on a 1-7 scale).
Proposed measurement protocol (not yet empirically validated): Self-report Likert item ('The response captured what I actually meant', 1-7), adaptable from felt-understanding subscales; aggregated per session as a mean. Convergent check: third-party raters score response-to-intent fidelity (ICC).
