Primes¶
- Affordance
- Warren's (1984) studies of stair-climbing showed that people perceive the maximum riser height they can climb as a constant ratio to their own leg length, demonstrating that affordances are perceived in body-scaled (intrinsic) rather than absolute units.
This sourceShows the climbable/not-climbable boundary is perceived as a constant ratio of riser height to the observer's leg length — affordances are perceived in body-scaled (intrinsic) rather than absolute units.

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.
