Primes¶
- Perception Action Loop
- It explains why thinking can be done in the world — agents offload cognitive work onto the loop, as when a fielder catches a fly ball not by computing its trajectory but by running so the ball appears to rise at a constant rate, letting the world do the arithmetic.
This sourceShows fielders run so the ball rises at a constant rate rather than computing its trajectory — offloading cognition onto the perception-action loop.

Verification¶
Does it exist? Confirmed. This work's DOI resolves to a registered record, which fixes its identity. That is all it fixes.
Does it back the claim? Not recorded. The single citation of this work carries no recorded support check.
Support is checked per citation rather than per work — the same source can be cited soundly in one article and wrongly in another. Per-citation recording began recently, so a citation with no recorded check is a gap in the record rather than evidence it went unchecked.
