Explanatory burdens and natural law: Invoking a field description of perception-action
Behavioral and Brain Sciences 24 (5):905-906 (2001)
Abstract
Although we agree with Hommel et al. that perception and action refer to one another, we disagree that they do so via a code. Gibson (1966; 1979) attempted to frame perception-action as a field phenomenon rather than as a particle phenomenon. From such a perspective, perception and action are adjoint, mutually interacting through an information field, and codes are unnecessary.Author's Profile
