Resumo: | Based upon Peirce’s processual conception of information, in this paper we analyse the concept of ecological information, in the context of perception-action. We argue that the notion of structural and transformational invariance, which constitutes the fundamental ingredients of ecological information as originally formulated by Gibson (1979/1986), can be better understood on the basis of Peirce’s methodological presuppositions. Of special interest here is Peirce’s conception of genuine information that is, in a certain specific sense, independent of thought, but directly connected to experiences and possible habits or forms of action. We shall also argue that the externalist method of investigation, which contrasts with the introspective internalist approach to perception-action, characterises a common element between Peirce’s pragmatism and Gibson’s ecological view, which allows an approximation to be reached between both of them in the study of information. |

Argumentamos que as noções de invariâncias estrutural e transformacional, constitutivas da informação ecológica, tal como originalmente elaboradas por Gibson (1979/1986), podem ser mais bem compreendidas à luz dos pressupostos metodológicos do pragmatismo peirceano. De especial interesse para nós é a concepção peirceana de informação genuína, cuja existência independe, em certo sentido, do pensamento, ainda que esteja diretamente vinculada à experiência e aos hábitos de ação dos organismos. Argumentamos também que o método externalista de investigação, em contraposição ao internalismo introspectivo no estudo da percepçãoação, constitui um elemento comum à abordagem ecológica gibsoniana e ao pragmatismo peirceano, o que possibilita uma rica aproximação entre ambos no estudo da natureza ontológica da informação.Pontifícia Universidade Católica de São Paulo2013-01-30info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://revistas.pucsp.br/index.php/cognitiofilosofia/article/view/13514Cognitio: Revista de Filosofia; Vol. 8 No. 1 (2007); 93-104Cognitio: Revista de Filosofia; v. 8 n. 1 (2007); 93-1042316-52781518-7187reponame:Cognitio (São Paulo.
