ABSTRACT
The discussion up to this point has been somewhat narrowly focused in at least two respects: First, by locating the metatheoretical foundations of Gibson’s ecological psychology in the radical empiricist tradition, I have neglected other substantive influences on the development of his thought. Second, by exploring ecological psychology from a radical empiricist perspective, my attention has been restricted for the most part on the individual, in keeping with James’s focus. In the process, however, the place of sociocultural structures in psychological analyses has been largely ignored. Part III broadens the discussion in these two ways.
