Abstract

In this paper, we bring together the concepts of affordance from ecological psychology and function from the organizational approach to philosophy of biology into a single integrative framework. This integration allows us to account for the biological basis of the notion of affordance, offering
theoretical tools to address the normative interrelations between theorganisms and their environments.
