Ecological psychology is a branch of psychology that studies the dynamic relationship between individuals and their environment. Developed by James J. Gibson, it emphasizes the direct perception of information in the environment and how individuals interact with their surroundings for adaptive behavior. This approach explores the ecological relevance of the environment in shaping perception, cognition, and action, highlighting the interdependence between organisms and their context. Ecological psychology is concerned with understanding how individuals perceive and act in their immediate surroundings, emphasizing the importance of the environment's physical and informational properties in shaping behavior.
