[koglist] [CDC Seminars] Eve V. Clark, Wednesday April 10, 2013, 5 PM, CDC in Hattyúhaz

by Mikolaj Hernik

PLEASE NOTE: Our seminar room has a limited capacity. Please arrive early to ensure you get a seat. The talk will begin promptly at 5. The next talk in the CDC Seminar series will be given by: Eve V. Clark (Department of Linguistics, Stanford University & MPI for Psycholinguistics, Nijmegen) Date: Wednesday, April 10, 2013, 5 PM Location: Cognitive Development Center, Hattyú u. 14, 3rd floor Title: Children Learn Language in Interaction Abstract: I argue that interaction is essential to children both for learning a first language and for learning how to use it. Interaction allows children to discover the forms to use, and gives them feedback on those forms for conveying particular meanings, without disrupting the ongoing exchange. I will give evidence for the role of interaction in the process of acquisition from (a) parental reformulations, (b) offers of new words, and (c) offers of information about new word meanings .

[koglist] Invitation - BME Cognitive Seminar Series / Meghívó - BME Kognitív Szemináriumsorozat

by Attila Keresztes

We cordially invite you to the next lecture of the BME Cognitive Seminar Series: Date & Time: April 15, Monday, 12:00-13:00 Location: BME, XI., Egry József utca 1., T. ép 515. *Cold-blooded social cognition* *Anna Kis* Research Centre for Natural Sciences, Institute of Cognitive Neuroscience and Psychology, Hungarian Academy of Sciences Department of Ethology, Eötvös University, Budapest, Hungary Abstract The evolution of highly developed sociality is often cited as one of the main behavioural characteristics that differentiate us from non-human animals. Thus one principal aim of comparative cognition research is to shed light to uniquely human socio-cognitive skills in contrast to those ones that are shared with other species. Here I will briefly present the main approaches to comparative cognition and then focus on those basic social behaviours that are shared by humans and low-level vertebrates -- reptiles. It is a wide spread notion that reptiles are non-social animals, although ample evidence has been gathered from field investigations that contradicts this assumption. I will present some of the more recent studies demonstrating that reptiles are able to follow the gaze of a conspecific and that they spontaneously learn from a social demonstration in various contexts including the two-action task. These results indicate that several socio-cognitive abilities are likely based on evolutionarily ancient mechanisms. -- Attila Keresztes Junior Research Fellow Budapest University of Technology and Economics Dept. of Cognitive Science, Egry József u. 1, Budapest 1111, Hungary Tel: +36 1 4633525

by Lukacs Agnes

---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Dirk Mende <mb-education(a)hu-berlin.de> Date: Thu, Apr 4, 2013 at 5:14 PM Subject: New Master's Program "Mind and Brain" To: Dirk Mende <mb-education(a)hu-berlin.de> Dear colleagues, As of the winter semester 2013/14 (beginning 1st October 2013) the Berlin School of Mind and Brain will be offering the English-language interdisciplinary master's program “Mind and Brain”. Please make suitable candidates aware of this new program! We would appreciate your supporting us by forwarding this e-mail to interested students, coordinators, or colleagues nationally and internationally. The master’s program is aimed at students with a BA degree in psychology, philosophy, neuroscience, linguistics, biology, cognitive science or related subjects. There is no tuition fee. The application period is from 1st to 31st May 2013. The structure of the master’s program allows students to choose between three areas of specialization: (1) psychology or neuroscience, (2) philosophy or linguistics, (3) academic management. Depending on the area of specialization, one of two different degrees may be awarded: the first area of specialization leads to a Master of Science (M.Sc.) degree (Track Brain), the two other areas of specialization lead to a Master of Arts (M.A.) degree (Track Mind). For further information, please visit our website www.mind-and-brain.de/master or contact the program coordinator Dr Dirk Mende, mb-education(a)hu-berlin.de, +49 30 2093-1792.

[koglist] Meghívó: A bizonytalanság két arca: hiány és variáció a fonológiában

by Tamás Kis

* MEGHÍVÓ* A *Társas-Kognitív Nyelvészeti Kutatócsoport, * valamint a *DAB Nyelvtudományi Munkabizottsága* meghívja *Gyarmathy Zsófia *(Applied Logic Laboratory, Budapest)* A bizonytalanság két arca: hiány és variáció a fonológiában* című előadására *Helyszín: *MTA Debreceni Területi Bizottság (DAB) székháza (Debrecen, Thomas Mann u. 49. <http://mnytud.arts.unideb.hu/tkny/de-dab_map.html>), I. emelet "C" terem (Kis előadó) *Időpont: *2013. április 8. (hétfő) 16:00 Az előadás témája két morfológiai/fonológiai jelenség, a paradigmatikus hiány, valamint a variáció, azaz szabad váltakozás. Paradigmatikus hiányról beszélünk, ha egy lexéma legalább egyik inflexiós alakja, egy "paradigmacella" hiányzik, és csupán körülírással fejezhető ki. Erre tán a legköznapibb példa a* *csukolj/*csuklj,* azonban az sem ritka, hogy egy teljes "paradigmasor" hiányzik (például a *kétli *és a *szokott *paradigmája nem tartalmaz -- többek közt -- múlt idejű alakokat). A variáció bizonyos tekintetben ennek a fordítottja, azaz egy paradigmacellát több alak is be tud tölteni. A magyarban ez gyakori eset például a magánhangzó-harmónia szempontjából ingadozó tövek esetén, így egyaránt előfordul a *hotelban *és a *hotelben.* Az utóbbi egy-két évtizedben egyre inkább a nyelvészeti kutatások fókuszába kerültek az ehhez hasonló, nem szabályos jelenségek, így számos elemzés született mind a paradigmatikus hiányról, mind a variációról különböző elméleti keretekben, konszenzus azonban azóta sem látszik kialakulni ezek megfelelő kezeléséről, és mindegyik elemzés hagy nyitott kérdést maga után. Előadásomban azokra a megközelítésekre építve teszek egy javaslatot a paradigmatikus hiány és a variáció kezelésére, amelyek szerint ezek a paradigmacella-kitöltés során felmerülő bizonytalanság eredményeként jönnek létre. Javaslatom szerint lehetséges lehet megkülönböztetni azokat az eseteket, amelyekben hiányra, illetve variációra számíthatunk, méghozzá arra az alaphalmazra hivatkozva, amelyből a paradigmán belüli regularitásokat kiszűrjük egy paradigmacella kitöltéséhez. Az előadásokon minden érdeklődőt örömmel lát a Társas-Kognitív Nyelvészeti Kutatócsoport és a DAB Nyelvtudományi Munkabizottsága. Debrecen, 2013. április 4.

Re: [koglist] [CDC Seminars] CogSci CEU Departmental Colloquium: April 3, Wednesday: Rolf Ulrich (University of Tuebingen) - The mental timeline during the processing of linguistic information

by Gyorgyne Finta

Dear All, Sorry for the late notice, I was away yesterday: _______________________________________ REMINDER: The CEU Department of Cognitive Science cordially invites you to a talk (as part of its Departmental Colloquium series) by Prof. Rolf Ulrich, University of Tuebingen Date: Wednesday, April 3, 2013 - 17:00 - 18:30 Location: Department of Cognitive Science, CEU, Frankel Leó út 30-34., Room G15 The mental timeline during the processing of linguistic information Our research demonstrates that spatial concepts are activated while participants process time-related information in sentences. Specifically, processing of temporal sentence information produces a space-time congruency effect on reaction time for responses arranged on the left-right axis and also for responses that consist of movements along the back-front axis. These findings are consistent with the view that time runs from left to right or from back to front. However, the results of our experiments indicate that these spatial concepts become only activated during the processing of sentences when time is a task-relevant dimension but not when time is task-irrelevant. According to this pattern of results, we have concluded that spatial concepts are not always required for the processing of temporal sentence information. In more general terms, these results cast doubt on the prevailing assumption within the framework of grounded cognition that linguistic processes need to tap sensory and motor processes in order to enable natural language understanding. We're looking forward to see you there (Frankel Leo u. 30-34) !
