视觉心理学还是（外部）表征心理学？
A Psychology of Visualization or (External) Representation?
摘要：
什么是可视化？除了作为交流和概念化我们的主题的工具，作为一个社区的身份声明之外，轻视定义的效用是有限的。要建立可视化心理学作为一个可行的跨学科研究计划，我们必须首先确定我们的集体调查的对象。我建议，虽然我们可能会提到“可视化”的研究，这个词的口语的可访问性和务实的对齐与其他领域，我们应该考虑探索一类文物和相应的过程更广泛和深刻的：外部表示。以下是外部表征研究作为新的跨学科努力的基础的论点，以及映射相应问题空间的方法。
英文摘要：
What is a visualization? There is limited utility in trifling with definitions, except insofar as one serves as a tool for communicating and conceptualizing our subject matter; a statement of identity for a community. To establish Visualization Psychology as a viable inter-disciplinary research programme, we must first define the object(s) of our collective inquiry. I propose that while we might refer to the study of "visualization" for the term's colloquial accessibility and pragmatic alignment with other fields, we should consider for exploration a class of artifacts and corresponding processes more expansive and profound: external representations. What follows is an argument for the study of external representation as the foundation for a new interdisciplinary endeavor, and approach to mapping the corresponding problem space.
