I believe the hierarchy is as follows: SessionID=>Hash. The hash connects to a session ID which is associated to a user object and assumed to be flagged as LoggedIn. So the hash indirectly points to the user object, however the sessionID that's associated with the hash is primarily responsible for the user association that occurs.
