The ecological approach to perception, as developed by James Gibson, is described and applied to how one knows, by means of the haptic perceptual system, various properties of hand-held objects. Four sets of experiments are reviewed in which subjects reported on the extent, orientation, shape, and fractional components of unseen objects wielded freely. For each task, an invariant specific to the object property in question is identified in the structured arrays of rotational moments and strains produced by the act of wielding. Results are discussed in relation to the concepts of attention and stimulation, as reformulated by the ecological approach, and the general theory of perception as information pickup.
詹姆斯·吉布森提出的知觉生态方法得到了描述，并应用于研究人们如何通过触觉感知系统了解手持物体的各种属性。文中回顾了四组实验，实验中受试者报告了自由挥舞的不可见物体的范围、方向、形状和组成部分。对于每项任务，在挥舞动作产生的旋转力矩和应变的结构化阵列中，识别出与所讨论物体属性特定的不变量。结合生态方法重新阐述的注意力和刺激概念，以及作为信息提取的知觉一般理论，对结果进行了讨论。
