Importance: Normal
Dear Colleagues,
this is a message directed especially to all ESCOP member from the
East-European coutries from whom we have an e-mail address available. Please
distribute the information about the forthcoming summerschool on learning
below to anyone in your country you know who might be interested in
participating, and encourage her/him to apply. Please note, that the
Volkswagen-Foundation supports the summerschool so that we can reimburse
travelling as well as most of staying costs. We will be happy to receive at
least some applications from students from your countries.

Summer School on the topic "Learning: The Acquisition of Behavioral
Competence"
Call for Applications
We are happy to announce that under the auspices of the European Society for
Cognitive Psychology (ESCOP), the Department of Cognitive Psychology at the
University of Würzburg is organizing a Summer School on the topic "Learning:
The Acquisition of Behavioral Competence", funded by the Volkswagen
Foundation.
TIME: 22nd 27th of September 2000
PLACE: Department of Cognitive Psychology at the University of Wuerzburg
Roentgenring 11
97070 Wuerzburg
Germany
AIM: The aim of the summer school is to provide a forum for young European
scientists engaged in learning research for a discussion and exchange of
ideas on current developments, methods, and applications, above all in the
interconnected but still separated research areas of animal learning,
associative learning in humans (including implicit learning), motor skill
acquisition, learning to control voluntary behavior, perceptual learning,
cortical stuctures involved in learning, and simulations of learning
processes by connectionist networks and by adaptive algorithms in machine
learning.
LECTURERS AND CONTENTS:
We are very pleased that a number of distinguished researchers will
contribute to the summer school by reporting on their area of expertise:
Prof. Axel Cleeremans: Free University Brüssel
Learning and Consciousness in humans and computers: The implicit-explicit
distinction; mental representation and consciousness; constrasting theories
of implicit learning; direct vs indirect measures and the process
dissociation procedure; abstraction in implicit learning and development;
computational models of consciousness and their underlying assumptions;
connexionist accounts of implicit learning; relationships between implicit
learning and language acquisition, brain imaging studies of implicit vs.
explicit learning.
Prof. Mark Gluck: Center for Molecular & Behavioral Neuroscience, Rutgers
University, New Jersey
Cortico-Hippocampal Function in Associative Learning. Interdisciplinary
approaches from psychobiology of animal learning, cognitive neuroscience of
human memory, and neurocomputational modeling.
Prof. Joachim Hoffmann: Universität Würzburg
Learning to control voluntary behavior: The ideomotor hypothesis of
bidirectional action-effect associations as the basis of voluntary behavior.
The influence of contingent action effects on the acquisition of behavioral
competence. The formation of conditionalized action-effect relations. The
function of effect anticipations in initiating actions. Simulations of the
formation of S-R-O units and applications in robotics.
Prof. Claes von Hofsten: Uppsala University
Motor Learning and skill development: The evolution of action systems. The
principles of dynamic systems applied to the development of actionsystems.
What are the consequences? The origin of action in development is action.
The action systems of newborn infants. A basic principle of action
development is that actions develop throughactions. The emergence of
prospective control.Development of particular action systems (basic
orientation, looking, and reaching). Relationship between perception,
action, and cognition in development. Questions of nature-nurture and innate
knowledge.
Prof. Jean-Arcady Meyer: AnimatLab-Lip6, University of Paris 6, Paris
A review of on-line and situated learning in animats: learning in neural
networks and in classifier systems. 1. Learning at the level of the
individual: non-supervised learning and reinforcement learning. Applications
to learning of cognitive maps for navigation, and to learning in
motivationally autonomous animats. 2. Learning at the level of the species:
evolutionary design of control architectures and/or morphologies. 3.
Interactions between learning, evolution and development, Baldwin effect.
Prof. John M. Pearce: University of Wales
Associative learning in animals: Basic phenomena and the Rescorla-Wagner
theory. The role of attention in animal learning. The distinction between
elemental (feature or distributed) and configural (exemplar or localist)
theories of associative learning. The role of context in associative
learning. Conditional and hierarchical accounts of association formation.
Prof. Philippe G. Schyns: University of Glasgow
Perceptual learning in categorizations: Categorization is a fundamental
process whereby variable perceptual inputs are progressively reduced to a
small number of equivalence classes, called "categories." How do theorists
frame the categorization problem so that variable face, object and scene
information is stabilized for higher-level processing? One approach
suggests that perception delivers a fixed set of features which are treated
as inputs to categorization processes. I will question this
unidirectionality and argue instead that perceptual organization is
intimately linked with the categorization being accomplished.
Prof. David R. Shanks: University College, London
Associative learning processes in humans: Normative accounts of elementary
learning. Contrasting associative and nonassociative models of elementary
learning processes. Representational issues in learning. Learning,
performance, priming, and awareness. Multiple indices of awareness and their
relation to learning. The implicit-explicit distinction in amnesia.
FUNDING:
We expect participants to make use of all possibilities to gain external
funding. For those participants who do not receive financial support from
elsewhere, we are able to contribute to travel and accomodation costs,
thanks to the Volkswagen Foundation. Support should be sufficient to cover
travel costs from European countries, accomodation at a local youth hostel
and lunch.
APPLICATION PROCEDURE:
The number of participants is limited to 40. Graduate students and post-docs
who are doing research on the topic Learning are invited to apply.
Participants should not be older than 33. The application should entail a
CV, a publication list, a short description of current research interests,
and an abstract for a poster. A recommendation from a senior researcher is
welcome. Applications will be considered in the order of reception date and
with regard to the quality of the abstracts as well as to the relevance of
research interests.
Applications should be sent to the following address:
Prof. Joachim Hoffmann
Universitaet Wuerzburg, Psychologie III,
Roentgenring 11,
D - 97070 Wuerzburg,
GERMANY
DEADLINE:
Applications should be submitted by May 15, 2000. Applicants will be
notified about admission by May 30, 2000.

GAME THEORY: ITS AMBITION TO SERVE AS THE FOUNDATION OF THE SOCIAL
SCIENCES AND OF MORAL PHILOSOPHY
Game theory presents itself as the study of collective decision making.
It has however come under frequent attacks on the ground that its
demands for human rationality are overly stringent. It responded to
these challenges vigorously by the imposition of the construct of
evolutionary games. In this talk I suggest to consider, in turn, the
structure of its so-called solution (or equilibrium) concepts. These
concepts can be assessed independently from the norms of rationality
the theory tends to entail. However, as I will argue, none of the
equilibrium concepts leave room for truly interdependent choice and
thus the theory should be seen as unable to address a large range of
issues in the social sciences and in moral philosophy - an
embarrassment given its wide-ranging ambitions. I will demonstrate this
claim by the example of the Prisoner's Dilemma and will especially
consider the extent to which this game can contribute to the discussion
of central issues in moral philosophy.
In the talk, I will present the relevant solution concepts in their
full-fledged mathematical form so that we will be able attend without
hindrance to their conceptual structure.
