Abstract

The arguments of Stoffregen & Bardy for studying perception basedon the global array are intriguing. This theory can be examined innonhuman species using nonverbal tasks. We examine how monkeysmaster a skill that incorporates a two-dimensional/three-dimensionalinterface. We feel this provides excellent support for Stoffregen& Bardy's theory.
