[edit]This article is excellent and full of information, but it is difficult to follow for someone who is not familiar with the topic.
Please re-write with more context and a basic summary of the concepts at the beginning.--Outlander 16:15, 22 August 2005 (UTC)

[edit]Also, a dentist’s office which is devoid of any patient would also be a meaningless artifact, destined to quietly sink into entropy.
- Perhaps it is my ignorance of the subject, but could someone please explain to me what that sentence is supposed to mean? --Deville (Talk) 01:02, 22 March 2006 (UTC)
Disambiguation
[edit]There is a link to [[Development]] on this page that is linking to a disambiguation page. I'm not sure which (if any) of the more specific pages on types of development would be a better link in this context. Could someone please review the choices available and either re-direct the link or delete it? Thanks.—Chidom talk 22:25, 8 August 2006 (UTC)
Barker and Gibson
[edit]I've never heard of Barker. The author mentions "affordances", a concept widely believed to have been coined by J. J. Gibson, who explicitly claimed he invented it. An article on ecological psychology should at least clarify the relationship with Gibson's work.
The connection is being discussed by M. M. Scott in "A POWERFUL THEORY AND A PARADOX, Ecological Psychologists After Barker" ENVIRONMENT AND BEHAVIOR, Vol. 37 No. 3, May 2005295-329 DOI:10.1177/0013916504270696
Scott also notes that Heft (2001) wrote a book relating Barker and Gibson's work with each other.
Heft,H.(2001).Ecologicalpsychologyincontext:JamesGibson,RogerBarker,andtheLegacy of William James’s radical empiricism. Mahwah, NJ: Erlbaum.
Maybe either Scott or Heft should be approached to provide better context for this article.

Talk page clarification
[edit]Just in case anyone else is as confused as I was, all of the above comments were brought over from the "Behavior settings" article, which contained some interesting, possibly valuable, but cryptic information. "Behavior settings" now exists as a redirect to "Environmental psychology". --Lockley 21:55, 19 March 2007 (UTC)
This article is just awful, is anyone actually dealing with it? Many sentences are illogical, biased, and lack references. This bombs. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 180.216.29.21 (talk) 05:46, 5 May 2011 (UTC)
WikiProject class rating
[edit]This article was automatically assessed because at least one WikiProject had rated the article as start, and the rating on other projects was brought up to start class. BetacommandBot 05:55, 10 November 2007 (UTC)
Other contributors
[edit]Its not where this section is now headed on the basis of this diff. It was more informative before, and if continued in this original direction, that would be good. As its stands some of the information about the contributors doesn't quite make sense. This comment is made to draw out an explanation rather than just revert.

Hi, I like your contribution, Aaleksanian. Do you have reference sources to add? To be in the article, it needs citations. Star767 00:45, 7 April 2013 (UTC) Thank you. Yes sure I will do the citation and provide all necessary references. Aaleksanian (talk) 01:49, 9 April 2013 (UTC)
Chapter 6 - University courses
[edit]I find this section odd given Wikipedia's neutrality. Some entries have a clear advertising tone to them. That, and it's somewhat discriminating towards universities that might offer such courses but are not listed here. A chapter that talks the history of the education of environmental psychology is fine, but one advertising actual courses unnecessary. 94.101.2.100 (talk) 14:18, 28 October 2013 (UTC)

Content Coverage
[edit]I appreciate the acknowledgment of a shift in focus towards environmental sustainability mentioned in the second paragraph of the article, however, the article never again mentions this topic. I believe that data regarding how contemporary global climate change impacts human behavior would make this article more meaningful and provide more complete coverage of the topic.

Out date re field focus - this page needs an overhaul
[edit]Hi everyone,
I'm writing on behalf of a group of international senior researchers in the field of Environmental Psychology. Related to some of the other topics listed here, there is concern among researchers in the field that this page is considerably out of date, and represents the research in the field which more closely aligns with the goals of the field 30-40 years ago, rather than contemporary topics of interest. Namely, if you look at the content of articles in our field's flagship scientific journals (like https://www.journals.elsevier.com/journal-of-environmental-psychology/ or https://journals.sagepub.com/home/eab) and the topics of focus at our largest international conferences (e.g., http://icep2021.com/), it is clear that the focus of the field has shifted considerably toward issues like sustainability, coping with and adaptation to environmental hazard risks, and intersections with health and wellbeing. These issues are briefly mentioned on the current page, but should represent the core focus.
For help with the actual content, we are in the process of gathering volunteers in our field to help organize and generate the content that would go on an updated, more accurate wikipedia summary. What do you, the active editors of this page, think of this proposed change?
From the perspective of widely-cited contemporary researchers in this field, the page basically needs a complete overhaul and we are eager to help with these efforts. But, this is not our expertise. Any input you have for if/how to re-organize and update this entry would be greatly appreciated!
