Word: nontraversability Part of Speech: noun Etymology: By surface analysis, non- + traverse + -ability, or, by surface analysis, nontraversable + -ity. 1. The condition of being nontraversable. Labels: uncountable Example: In this research we investigated perception of traversability in infants making independent trips in an unfamiliar environment. The overall plan was to put young ambulatory infants in a novel situation where surfaces varying in properties defining traversability or nontraversability stretched between the infant and a customary objective (a parent). […] Both crawling and walking subjects were observed when presented with surfaces having different affordances for walking as compared with crawling. The rigidity of a surface — its resistance to deformation — was chosen as the property to be focused on in the experiments to be reported. […] Earlier research (Gibson, Owsley, & Johnston, 1978; Gibson, Owsley, Walker, & Megaw-Nyce, 1979; Gibson & Walker, 1984) showed that even precrawling infants can discriminate differences in rigidity of objects that can be mouthed or handled.
