In the mind's eye: Perceptual coupling and sensorimotor contingencies
Behavioral and Brain Sciences 24 (5):986-986 (2001)
| Abstract | The theoretical proposal that perceptual experience be thought of as expectancies about sensorimotor contingencies, rather than as expressions of mental representations, is endorsed; examples that effectively enforce that view are discussed; and one example (of perceptual coupling) that seems to demand a mental representation, with all of the diagnostic value such a tool would have, is raised for consideration. | |||||||||
