Abstract

Abstract A radical embodied cognitive neuroscience (RECN) based on ecological psychology requires the understanding of the brain, its structure, and its functions to be compatible with the main tenets of the Gibsonian theory. In this paper, we propose neural reuse as a promising candidate to achieve such understanding. We base our proposal on two fundamental ideas. In section two, we review what we take to be the two central requirements for a RECN based on ecological psychology: compatibility with the explanation of perception and action at the ecological scale and the rejection of computation as a paradigm for the explanation of the activity of the brain. In section three, we show how neural reuse meets the two requirements and, furthermore, we evaluate its theoretical parallelism with ecological psychology. Finally, after developing these ideas, in the conclusion we put forward further aspects and research possibilities that follow from the coalition of neural reuse and ecological psychology for a Gibsonian neuroscience.

激进的认知神经科学

摘要基于生态心理学的激进的具体化认知神经科学（RECN）要求对大脑、其结构和功能的理解与吉布森理论的主要原理相兼容。在本文中，我们提出神经重用是实现这种理解的一个很有前途的候选者。我们的建议基于两个基本思想。在第二节中，我们回顾了基于生态心理学的RECN的两个核心要求：与生态尺度上对感知和行动的解释相兼容，以及拒绝将计算作为解释大脑活动的范式。在第三节中，我们展示了神经复用如何满足这两个要求，此外，我们还评估了其与生态心理学的理论并行性。最后，在发展了这些思想之后，我们在结论中提出了神经复用和生态心理学联盟对吉布森神经科学的进一步研究方向和可能性。

期刊介绍： This unique journal publishes original articles that contribute to the understanding of psychological and behavioral processes as they occur within the ecological constraints of animal-environment systems. It focuses on problems of perception, action, cognition, communication, learning, development, and evolution in all species, to the extent that those problems derive from a consideration of whole animal-environment systems, rather than animals or their environments in isolation from each other. Significant contributions may come from such diverse fields as human experimental psychology, developmental/social psychology, animal behavior, human factors, fine arts, communication, computer science, philosophy, physical education and therapy, speech and hearing, and vision research.
