生态心理学之界说

生态心理学目前还没有形成一种统一的范式，把它称为一种取向比把它称为一种学科更为合适，更能反映它内部复杂的现状，也更具包容性。生态心理学有广义和狭义之分，我们通常所说的是指狭义生态心理学。狭义生态心理学的两大理论核心是以巴克为代表和以吉布森为代表的理论范式，其他人的思想都基本上在整合和延伸他们的思想的基础上展开的。作为一种研究取向，可以把狭义生态心理学初步界定为：生态心理学是一种强调研究动物(人)-环境交互体的动态交互过程，尤其倾向于研究生态环境中的具有功能意义的心理现象的取向。

The Definition of Ecological Psychology

At present, ecological psychology is not forming a unified paradigm, so calling it an approach is better than calling it a subject, which can better reflect its complicated inner state, and is more inclusive. It has broad sense and narrow sense, and the latter is which we generally referred to. The theoretical central of the latter is the paradigm of Baker's and Gibson's theories, of which others' theories are extended on the basis. As an approach, the latter can be defined as: ecological psychology is an approach which emphasizes the study of the reciprocitical processes of human-environment, especially inclined to the study of the psychological phenomena of functional significance in an ecological environment.
