摘要

当我们在进化框架内将行为视为时间上延伸的流动时,就会产生两个基本问题:(a)什么是有机体?生物体是一个通过不断与环境交换能量而保持完整的过程。它吸收资源,排出废物。有机体的行为包括有机体过程中构成交换的那些过程部分。这些活动服务于繁殖的功能,而繁殖一般取决于生存。生存和繁殖取决于对系统重要事件(PIE)的反应。系统重要事件会诱发一些活动,以增强或减轻系统重要事件的影响。生物不仅要对 PIE 做出反应,还要对与 PIE 共同发生的事件做出反应。活动和环境特征都可能与 PIE 共存。当生物体引入任何一种共变时,其行为都会随着时间的推移而适应。适应的早期阶段构成研究者所说的 "目标方向",后期阶段构成研究者所说的 "习惯"。行为和环境构成了一个动态系统,通过对系统中的协方差和环境特征进行操作,可以进行多种实验干预。这种 "摩尔法 "可以让人们理解目标方向和习惯的实验,而无需诉诸日常的心智学术语。

A molar view of goal direction and habit

When we treat behavior within an evolutionary framework and as temporally extended flow, two fundamental questions arise: (a) What is an organism? and (b) What is behavior? An organism is a process that stays intact by constantly exchanging energy with the environment. It takes in resources and puts out waste. The behavior of an organism consists of those process parts of the organism process that make up the exchange. These activities serve the function of reproducing, which generally depends on surviving. Surviving and reproducing depend on responding to phylogenetically important events (PIEs). A PIE induces activities that enhance or mitigate the PIE. Organisms respond not only to a PIE but also to events that covary with the PIE. Both activities and environmental features may covary with a PIE. When either type of covariance is introduced to an organism, behavior adapts over time. The early stages of adaptation constitute what researchers call “goal direction,” and the later stages constitute what researchers call “habit.” Behavior and environment constitute a dynamic system, and manipulations of the covariances and environmental features of the system allow many experimental interventions. This molar approach allows experiments on goal direction and habit to be understood without appeal to everyday mentalistic terms.
