The researchers whose trusted networks rank it highest, strongest advocate first. Every researcher gets a different order.

The ecological dynamics of 1v1 sub-phases in association football (2010, background): “The findings of the present study suggest that dyadic system behaviours emerge in an environmental exploratory process [4,6] that cannot be explained exclusively by only one control parameter.”
What exactly is acquired during skill acquisition (2011, background): “When body dimensions and action capabilities change, for example through development or ageing, actions that were once possible may become less possible or vice versa (see Fajen et al., 2009).”
Ecological cognition: expert decision-making behaviour in sport (2017, background): “Affordances are dynamic, changing across continuous performer-environment interactions (Fajen et al., 2009) and are not representational properties of mind.”
Understanding perception and action in sport: how can virtual reality technology help? (2013, background): “According to Fajen et al. (2009) ‘to perceive an affordance . . . is to perceive how one can act when confronted with a particular set of environmental conditions’ (p. 87).”
A constraints-led perspective to understanding skill acquisition and game play: a basis for integration of motor learning theory and physical education praxis? (2010, background): “Affordances are opportunities for action and are defined relative to the action capabilities relative to the individual (Fajan, Riley, and Turvey 2009 ).”
