[Koglist] [CEU Cogsci Talks] : Collouium: November 17, Stefanie Höhl (University of Heidelberg)

by Frances Buttelmann

The CEU Department of Cognitive Science cordially invites you to its talk by Stefanie Höhl (University of Heidelberg) Date: Please note that it will be on TUESDAY, November 17, 2015, 17.00-18.30 Title: Effects of eye contact and gaze on infants' looking, learning and brain activity Abstract: Soon after birth infants are very interested in faces and seem to pay particular attention to eyes. Why is that? In a series of eye tracking and EEG studies we have explored how infants perceive other persons’ eye gaze and how this affects their own brain activity, looking behavior and their learning about novel objects. We discovered that 4-month-old infants recognize objects that were previously cued by another person’s eye gaze and/or head direction. This is true even if only schematic eyes are presented as cues, but not when the objects are cued by non-social dynamic stimuli or contrast-reversed schematic eyes. We also explored infants’ brain activities in response to object-directed and non-object-directed eye gaze across the first year of life and discovered substantial age-related differences. Furthermore, we tested how infants react to eye contact in a live joint attention interaction and found very similar activations in 9-month-olds as in adults. The studies will be discussed in the broader context of infant social cognitive development and learning. Location: Department of Cognitive Science, CEU, Oktober 6 street 7, room 101. We are looking forward to see you there!

[Koglist] invitation to a talk on`The (Un)Refutation of Idealism` by Tom Stoneham - Tuesday, 17 November, 5.30 PM, Zrinyi 14, Room 412

by Krisztina Biber

The CEU Department of Philosophy cordially invites you to a talk (as part of its Departmental Colloquium series) by Tom Stoneham (University of York) on The (Un)Refutation of Idealism Tuesday, 17 November 2015, 5.30 PM, Zrinyi 14, Room 412 ABSTRACT In 'The Refutation of Idealism' GE Moore famously argues that a certain claim is both the basis for believing that 'esse is percipi' and self-contradictory. The claim in question is the identification of the sensation of e.g. blueness with the object of the sensation, namely blueness - or perhaps an instance of blueness - itself. Call this 'Objectualism' about the sensation. The connection between Objectualism and the esse is percipi thesis was noted by Berkeley (Notebooks 609), though obviously he did not think it self-contradictory. In this paper I first defuse Moore’s charge of self-contradiction before defending Objectualism on two grounds: first, that if we accept the argument that naïve realism best explains the phenomenology of perception, especially what is called transparency, then Objectualism provides a better explanation than other relationist forms of naïve realism; and secondly, Objectualism avoids the most problematic forms of the hard problem of consciousness (something Berkeley also noted at the start of the second of the Three Dialogues). Neither Berkeley nor Moore suggest that Objectualism alone entails that esse is percipi, but it does provide a fertile starting point for idealism Krisztina Biber Department of Philosophy Coordinator ------------------------------------------ Central European University Nador u. 9. | 1051 Budapest, Hungary Office: + 36.1.327.3806 | biberk(a)ceu.hu | www.ceu.hu

[Koglist] "Work in Progress" Student Symposium

by Petia Kojouharova

Work in Progress The Department of Cognitive Psychology at the Institute of Psychology of the Eötvös Loránd University is organizing its annual student symposium, "Work in Progress", whose main goal is to provide a forum for students in the field of cognitive science to present their research to a wider audience of peers as well as receive feedback on their work. Participation is open for any student who has not yet received their PhD degree. The topic of the presented research must be cognitive, and pilot studies and research plans are also welcome. The presentations should be in English. A participant can choose to present their work in Hungarian at end of the event. Date and time: 14th of December, 2015 (Monday), starting at 10 o'clock Place: ELTE-PPK, Institute of Psychology, Izabella utca 46, Révész Géza room (room 301) The presentations should be 10 minutes long in the case of completed studies and 5 minutes long in the case of a pilot study or a research plan. There is no time limit for the discussion. If you would like to participate, please send us a title and a maximum 150-word abstract through the online registration form which can be found here: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/1rG6U_Xz8lwPm_lIwmeslWu9OCUwGOOCuG-cg7ZK__s… Deadline: 7th December, 2015 (Monday), 23:59 The final schedule of the event will be available after the deadline.

[Koglist] ELTE Kognitív Szeminárium: Tauzin Tibor - A kontingens reaktivitás szerepe a kommunikáció felismerésében csecsemőknél és kutyánál

by Petia Kojouharova

Szeretettel várunk minden érdeklődőt a Kognitív Szeminárium előadására, amelyen *Tauzin Tibor: A kontingens reaktivitás szerepe a kommunikáció felismerésében csecsemőknél és kutyánál *című előadását hallgathatják meg. Időpont és helyszín: 2015. november 26. (csütörtök), 17:30, Izabella utca 46, 301-es terem (Révész Géza terem) A társas kontingencia, vagyis a válaszvalószínűség nagysága interaktív helyzetben, a kommunikáció egy strukturális alapjellemzője. A kontingencia mértéke és a kontingens reaktivitás fajtája segíthet felismerni és elkülöníteni a kommunikatív és nem kommunikatív interakciókat. Ez alapjául szolgálhat többek között a kommunikációs szándék és kommunikatív ágensek felismerésének. Az előadás két olyan empirikus tanulmányt mutat be, amiben csecsemőknél és kutyánál vizsgáltuk a kontingens reaktivitásra mutatott érzékenységet és azt, hogy ez miként segíthet a kommunikáció felismerésén túl, a kommunikáció tartalmának kikövetkeztetésében.

[Koglist] [CEU Cogsci Talks] REMINDER: CogSci CEU Departmental Colloquium: November 11, Wednesday: Hugo Mercier: Novel evidence for the argumentative theory of reasoning

by Gyorgyne Finta

REMINDER: The CEU Department of Cognitive Science cordially invites you to its talk by Hugo Mercier (University of Neuchatel) Date: Wednesday, November 11, 2015 - 17:00-18:30 Host: Christophe Heintz Location: Department of Cognitive Science, CEU, Oktober 6 street 7, room 101. Novel evidence for the argumentative theory of reasoning The argumentative theory of reasoning suggests that the main function of human reasoning is to argue: to find arguments to convince others, and to evaluate others' arguments to be convinced when warranted. Support for this theory has come so far from reviewing work in several domains of psychology. Here I will present novel experimental evidence supporting the theory's predictions: 1) argumentative competence is universal and early developing; 2) the improvement of performance in group discussion stems from sound argumentative competence; 3) there is an asymmetry in the way people evaluate their own and other people's arguments See more at: http://cognitivescience.ceu.edu/events/2015-11-11/departmental-colloquium-h… We are looking forward to see you there!
