I'd say "worldview," personally, but there'd be elements of his emotional life there, too: it's an idea that's central to understanding not only his life choices, but his attitude toward his pain. And he and Wilson have never agreed on that point: Wilson's need is to keep House alive as long as possible, without necessarily confronting the questions (and realities) of what that would mean in terms of quality of life.
The essay I mentioned is one I wrote about the appeal of fantasy/magical realism AUs in House fandom; you can see an extract here. (The rest is largely a discussion of what I was attempting to explore in writing "Principles of Growth" and remains unposted.)
