Overview

This study presents a unified framework for understanding perceptuomotor organization, which stresses the importance of an ecological perspective. Section 1 reviews recent research on a variety of sensory and perceptual processes in birds. Section 2 describes the various research approaches - behavioural, neurophysiological, anatomical and comparative - to understand how the activities of large numbers of muscles are co-ordinated to generate adaptive behaviour. Section 3 is concerned with a range of approaches to analyzing the links between perceptual and motor processes, through neurophysiological analysis and behavioural methods.
