摘要

Psychologist James J. Gibson coined the word "affordance" in 1979, to describe the relationship between the abilities of a living creature, and features in the environment that afford action for those abilities. An affordance, therefore, is physically real, but is defined as an affordance only in reference to a particular creature. This term has been widely adopted, and is now found in design, education, and cognitive science. Sometimes it is used in Gibson's original meaning, but it has also been applied to broader discussions of social and cognitive activities, resulting in a certain confusion of terminology. A short summary reveals the variety of current uses for the term, and goes further to propose that this range may be simplified by applying Marshall McLuhan's observation that "media are the extensions of mankind." In that analysis, an object like a cup is an extension of cupped hands, because, like hands, it holds water. Defining some objects as body-extensions makes it clear that affordances can be modified in two ways: by changing either features that are available in the environment, or the extended abilities of the user. This distinction simplifies the description of different types of affordances, and may help designers in planning effective experiences for users.

Gibson在1979年创造了“可接受的”这个词，描述生物生物能力与环境中的环境中的功能之间的关系。因此，在物理上是真实的，但被定义为仅参考特定生物的承受者。该术语已被广泛采用，现在在设计，教育和认知科学中找到。有时它是在吉布森的原始含义中使用，但它也已应用于更广泛的社会和认知活动的讨论，导致术语一定的困惑。简短的摘要揭示了这些术语的各种目前的用途，并进一步提出通过应用Marshall Mcluhan的观察来简化该范围，即“媒体是人类的扩展”。在那个分析中，像杯子这样的物体是杯手的延伸，因为就像手一样，它拿着水。定义某些对象作为Body-extensions使其明确可以通过两种方式修改可供选择：通过更改环境中可用的任何功能，或用户的扩展能力。这种区别简化了不同类型的可取家的描述，并且可以帮助设计师规划有效的用户体验。
