Ouro Preto

     ICPA is the conference of the International Society for Ecological Psychology (ISEP), which happens twice a year. Since the first meeting at Storrs in Connecticut, USA in 1981, ICPA has provided forums for researchers and scientists interested in how environmental information constrains action. This issue was prominently examined by the psychologist James J. Gibson, whose ideas led the development of the ecological approach to perception and action.
