  • The Perception of the Direction of a Moving Horizontal Line from a Mobile Perspective of Observation is Facilitated by a Fixed but Not by a Changing Background

  • Affordances Guide Choice Behavior between Equal Schedules of Reinforcement in Rats

    Ángel Andrés Jiménez, Denisse A Ochoa et al.ARTICLEEcological Psychology2019

    Operant choice theories pose that behavior distribution between options is ruled by the consequences related with these options. Evidence suggests that rats’ performance is attuned to the affordances that the operant setting provides, such as lever height. Our aim was to explore in rats whether lever press distribution was influenced by the affordances furnished by two levers. Lever pressing was reinforced in two concurrent equal variable-ratio s…

  • The Senses Considered as Perceptual Systems

    Pablo Muñoz Covarrubias, Pablo Covarrubias et al.ARTICLEEcological Psychology2017

    This editorial introduces the first part of a 2-part special issue of Ecological Psychology dedicated to James J. Gibson's 1966 book, The Senses Considered as Perceptual Systems, which presents many revolutionary ideas that are important not only for the study of perception but also for the science of psychology in general including the rejection of the mechanistic and dualistic stimulus-response formula (cf. Dewey, 1896), the rejection of sensat…

  • The Ecological Revolution

    Pablo Muñoz Covarrubias, Pablo Covarrubias et al.ARTICLEEcological Psychology2017

    This editorial presents the second of a 2-part special issue honoring the publication of James J. Gibson's 1966 book, The Senses Considered as Perceptual Systems. As was pointed out by several reviews of this book written just after its publication (i.e., between 1967 and 1969), Gibson's 1966 book represents a revolution not only for the psychological science but also for domains beyond that of psychology. This second part of the special issue is…

  • Invariants and Information Pickup in The Senses Considered as Perceptual Systems

    Pablo Muñoz Covarrubias, Pablo Covarrubias et al.ARTICLEEcological Psychology2017

    Although Gibson focused his agenda on the study of perception and Skinner on learning as contingencies of reinforcement, they shared a nonrepresentational approach. We propose that the ecological concept of invariants developed in Gibson's book The Senses Considered as Perceptual Systems (1966) could underlie Skinner's notion of contingencies of reinforcement as environmental opportunities for behaving. The proposal is divided in 3 parts: the con…
