Environmental Properties

Perception of possibilities for behavior reflects the task-specific fit between action capabilities and environmental properties. We investigated whether this is so for a behavior that requires spontaneously and temporarily coordinating anatomical components and inert objects into a person-plus-object action system—stepping over an expanse with crutches. We found that perception of this affordance (a) scaled to an anthropometric property of primary relevance to performing this behavior (leg length), (b) reflected the ability to perform this behavior, and that (c) variability in perception decreased with practice perceiving this affordance. The results are consistent with the proposal that perceiving affordances for a given behavior requires assembling a task-specific perceptual instrument.

The Impact

Приведені результати досліджень зі впливу ґрунтових та страхових гербіцидів на забур’яненість посівів сої під час вирощування її за різних систем  землеробства (промислова та no-till). Встановлено, що найбільша ефективність дії ґрунтових і страхових гербіцидів та найменший рівень забур’яненості відмічений під час застосування бакових сумішей як до появи сходів, так і в період веґетації культури, що впливає на формування врожаю сої. Допосівна бур’янова синузія ефективно знищується гербіцидами суцільної дія за системи no-till. The main results of research on the impact of soil and insurance herbicides on weediness of crops for cultivation of soybean under different farming systems (industrial and no-till) are presented. It was established that the greatest efficiency of soil and insurance herbicides and the lowest level of contamination was marked in the application of tank mixes before sprouting and during the growing season and crops, which influences the crop soybeans. Pre-sowing weed synusia is effectively destroyed by total herbicides continuous action system of no-till.

Learning Together

How do the principles of systems work show up in the day-to-day activities of organizations? Chapters 4 to 7 describe four practices of systems work, demonstrating how the principles from Chapter 3 are put into action. Chapter 4 describes a key role for organizations, which is to cultivate collectives comprised of primary actors: people who are immersed in a social issue and who often have lived experience of the social issue itself. It is a seemingly innocuous role that can have profound consequences. The organizations visited for the research are each doing this in different ways, yet with similar objectives. Through peer groups, incubators, learning circles, committees, and numerous other structures, these organizations are cultivating collectives that enable individuals, families, and groups to gain new perspectives while learning together—ultimately creating an action system for broader change.
