Professor of kinesiology Dr. Thomas A. Stoffregen and director of the Affordance Perception-Action Laboratory (APAL) gave insight into which category he felt should be added to the Nobel Prize.
The article, “What’s missing from the Nobel Prize?

Stoffregen explained that behavioral science should be added because a high volume of critical, deserving work is being accomplished in the field.
