Question

What is learned in perceptual learning? A reply to professor postman?

Answer 1

$\huge\mathfrak{Answer:}$

This is a reply to Professor Postman's critique (see 30: 5713) of the Gibsons' theory. The main point of disagreement concerns the authors' belief that Postman does not avoid the problems inherent in the associationistic position by ridding it of phenomenal experience and relating it to S-R connections. It is held that Postman's position leaves him with the problem of whether perceptual learning is a change in the attachment of responses to stimuli or an increase in the specificity of responses to stimuli.
