Perceiving affordances for fitting through apertures.
Affordances--possibilities for action--are constrained by the match between actors and their environments. For motor decisions to be adaptive, affordances must be detected accurately. Three experiments examined the correspondence between motor decisions and affordances as participants reached through apertures of varying size. A psychophysical procedure was used to estimate an affordance thresh...
متن کاملPerceiving Affordances through Perceptual Information
The purpose of this study was to explore how users perceive the affordances of an object from specific operation tasks. These affordances can be specified in terms of perceptual information. To this end, the eye-tracking technique was employed to capture what product parts uses’ fixation focused on when using a product for specific operational tasks. The results show that, for physical-behavior...
متن کاملVisual guidance of walking through apertures: body-scaled information for affordances.
A necessary condition for visually guided action is that an organism perceive what actions are afforded by a given environmental situation. Warren (1984) proposed that an affordance such as the climbability of a stairway is determined by the fit between properties of the environment and the organism and can be characterized by optimal points, where action is most comfortable or efficient, and c...
متن کاملPerception-action development from infants to adults: perceiving affordances for reaching through openings.
Perceiving possibilities for action-affordances-requires sensitivity, accuracy, and consistency. In the current study, we tested children of different ages (16-month-olds to 7-year-olds) and adults to examine the development of affordance perception for reaching through openings of various sizes. Using a psychophysical procedure, we estimated individual affordance functions to characterize part...
متن کاملMemory for the functional characteristics of climbing walls: perceiving affordances.
In 2 experiments, differences in visual perception of climbing routes (route finding) between 7 expert climbers, 4 novices, and 9 inexperienced participants were studied. In both experiments, participants reproduced on a scale model the locations and orientations of 23 holds of a climbing wall. The results showed that the expert climbers recalled more information and recalled clusters of inform...
