Abstract

In this commentary we outline Perceptual Control Theory and suggest this as a fruitful way for Lee and Schwartz to fully embody their account of cleansing behavior. Moreover we take issue with the command control approach that Lee and Schwartz have taken seeing this as an unnecessary cognitive commitment within an embodied model of cleansing behavior.
