PERSPECTIVES ON THE RELATION BETWEEN INFORMATION AND DYNAMICS - AN EPILOGUE

In this epilogue to the special issue of Human Movement Science on the role of information in dynamical accounts of action, three broadly defined approaches are distinguished, namely the ecological approach formulated by Gibson, the perception-action approach formulated by Kugler and Turvey and the dynamical approach formulated by Kelso and Schoner. These three approaches serve as a framework for discussing the various contributions to the special issue, which address current conceptual problems in connecting information and dynamics and propose novel ways to solve them.
