Dr. Tom Stoffregen

Kinesiology professor Tom Stoffregen, PhD, has published a chapter in a newly released book, Perception as Information Detection: Reflections on Gibson’s Ecological Approach to Visual Perception. The book commemorates the 40th anniversary of James J. Gibson’s landmark work, The Ecological Approach to Visual Perception (1979). Current scholars were asked to reflect on individual chapters from Gibson’s book. Stoffregen’s chapter, “The use and uses of depiction,” reflects on Gibson’s chapter, “Pictures and visual awareness.”
