Gary Cziko is an American researcher, author and professor emeritus[1] in the field of educational psychology at the University of Illinois at Urbana–Champaign who has worked on the philosophical model known as perceptual control theory (PCT) – a model whose original developer, William T. Powers, was his mentor.[2] He has written two introductory books on the subject, and in 1995 he introduced the concept of "universal selectionism" into the PCT model.[3] Cziko is regarded by some peers in this field of study as one of its leading figures.[4][self-published source?]
