1. Psychology. The tendency to seek explanations of behaviour in terms of direct responses to external stimuli rather than cognitive processes or other internal factors.

1924 Jrnl. Philos. 21 286 These above questions constitute the problems with which modern theoretical psychology must concern itself in trying to weigh the merits of the problem of centralism versus peripheralism.

1948 S. S. Sargent in C. L. Stacey & M. F. DeMartino Understanding Human Motivation (1958) xxix. 300 This paper represents a protest against what Leeper calls ‘peripheralism’ in psychology; that is to say, the description of behavior chiefly in terms of stimuli and overt responses, to the neglect of intervening organismic factors.

1987 D. C. Dennett Intentional Stance ii. 40 Exposing the error of those who had hoped to find something in the head to settle the cases Quine's peripheralism left indeterminate.

2. Concern for, or belief in the importance of, peripheral regions, factors, etc., rather than central ones.

1963 Amer. Hist. Rev. 68 924 From this rationale has grown a postwar legend..in which American strategists, betrayed by the forces of British peripheralism, struggle..‘to win their way back to the notion of waging a war of mass and concentration on the Continent.’

1992 Internat. Affairs 68 86 The new system has one dominant centre—the EC—and all distance from this becomes simply peripheralism.

1995 W. B. Faris in L. P. Zamora & W. B. Faris Magical Realism ii. 165 Like the frontier, like primitivism, the lure of peripheralism (more recently called by other names like the subaltern, the liminal, the marginal) dies hard, because the idea is so appealing and so central to the center's self-definition.
