A discrete instance of a user deliberately ending or stepping away from AI interaction, marking a boundary in the work session; distinguished from incidental gaps by being an intentional disengagement.
EVENT. One occurrence would be coded when a session log shows an intentional disengagement marker, operationalized as a user-initiated session close or an idle gap exceeding a pre-set threshold (e.g., >= 30 minutes) that is not an automatic timeout. Brief within-task pauses below threshold do not count.
Proposed measurement protocol (not yet empirically validated): Session-log event extraction: count of qualifying disengagement events per day, with each event timestamped and its duration recorded. Threshold and user-initiated-close detection are rule-based; a manual audit sample verifies classification, could be reported as percent agreement with the rule.
