This framework clarifies perception impacts understanding ecological affordances, suggesting distinct phenomena influence ecological challenges.
Ko and Neuberg introduce a framework for understanding how ecological affordances are perceived.

Distinguishing between these phenomena can facilitate our understanding of how the mind evolved to represent and manage ecological challenges.
