The Interdisciplinary Handbook of Perceptual Control Theory: Living in the Loop brings together the latest research, theory and applications from W. T. Powers’ Perceptual Control Theory (PCT). PCT proposes that the behavior of a living organism lies in the control of perceived aspects of both itself and its environment. Sections cover theory, the application of PCT to a broad range of disciplines, including philosophy, anthropology, education, health, culture and design. This volume complements the first volume with detailed, empirical and translational work on action control and learning, human-machine interaction, and mental health interventions.

Chapters provide sophisticated analysis of current societal challenges such as the toxic culture of machismo and militarism, institutionalized discrimination, the changing nature of childhood, the rising prevalence of dementia in an aging society, and the stigmatization of mental illness.

  • Outlines applications of PCT in health behavior models for interventions
  • Explores similarities between change trajectories in psychological therapy and laboratory studies of learning
  • Reviews how PCT contributed to our psychological understanding of dementia, including Empowered Conversations training
  • Summarizes the uses PCT and neural activities that underpin conscious mental imagery

Arvustused

"This second volume of the handbook of perceptual control theory is a tour de force of how we, as embodied creatures, navigate our sensorium. It is written by people doing cuttingedge work in theoretical neurobiology and beyond; ranging from controlled perception, through communication in neurodegenerative disorders to the Theatre of the Oppressed. The crosscutting theme is the circular causality inherent in active sensing and perceptual controlframed artfully as living in the loop. The ideas on offer testify to the fact that Perceptual Control Theory is a landmark theory in our journey of self-understanding ideas whose fecundity is amply demonstrated in these pages." - Karl Friston FRS, University College London

"It is a wonderful overview of the current state of affairs in the field and a just tribute to the founding father of PCT, William (Bill) Powers. This book is a must-read for anyone willing to gain a better understanding of hierarchical (perceptual) control theory and its ramifications to a wide range of scientific fields, varying from the physical sciences and engineering to clinical medicine and the humanities. The appearance of this book is very timely, as we dive further into an age that appears to be in a dire need for gentle hierarchical control." -- Dr. Rutger Goekoop, MD, PhD, Psychiatrist, Free University Amsterdam Department of Behavioral and Movement Sciences; Parnassia Academy, PsyQ, The Hague, Department of Anxiety disorders, Early Detection and Intervention Team (psychosis)

"In this second volume of a much-needed handbook, the authors break ground in developing and extending perceptual control theory, showing its application to a range of fields, including health behaviours, mental health service provision, and education. A rich, in-depth, and stimulating collection of papers that are an essential resource for those interested in this cutting edge perspective on human experiencing and behaviour." -- Mick Cooper, Professor of Counselling Psychology, University of Roehampton

Dr. Mansell has written over sixty interdisciplinary publications on perceptual control theory, has convened three international conferences on PCT, and hosts a website pctweb.org that has received over 35,000 views since its inception in 2009. His work on PCT has appeared on UK national television, in science museums, and online newspaper and magazine articles. He has authored and edited various books, including: Coping with Fears and Phobias (2007), A Transdiagnostic Approach to CBT using Method of Levels Therapy (2012), Principles-Based Counselling and Psychotherapy (2015), Oxford Guide to Metaphors in CBT (2010), and The Bluffers Guide to Psychology (2006). Eva de Hullu is assistant professor at the Faculty of Psychology at the Open University, the Netherlands. She is also the current Chair of the International Association of Perceptual Control Theory (IAPCT) and has presented work on PCT in IAPCT conferences. (eva.dehullu@ou.nl) Vyv Huddy is a Lecturer in Clinical Psychology at the University of Sheffield, UK. He has co-authored a number of published articles utilising PCT across the field of psychology research. He is qualified in Clinical Psychology at Royal Holloway (University of London) in 2008. His first post as clinical psychologist was in research, where he joined a team developing Cognitive Remediation Therapy for psychosis. During this post, and subsequently working in a prison and acute inpatient mental health settings, he became interested in developing patient perspective therapy for secondary care, inpatient and other secure settings. Very recently, he has also become interested in taking a community psychology approach to working alongside communities and organisations to develop their resources and agency - 64 Million Artists (https://64millionartists.com) are a key partner in a line of research on this topic.
