PLEASE NOTE THAT THE TALK WILL BE IN THE AUDITORIUM (NADOR U. 9)!!!
The CEU Department of Cognitive Science and the Social Mind Center cordially invites you to its talk by
Bruno Galantucci (Yeshiva University & Haskins Laboratories) http://www.haskins.yale.edu/staff/galantucci.html
Date: Wednesday, April 27, 2016 - 17:00-18:30
Host: Natalie Sebanz
Location: CEU Auditorium, Nador u. 9. (Do not forget to bring your CEU ID, otherwise, you have to register at the entrance!)
The development of sophisticated forms of communication in humans
One of the hallmarks of our species is that we develop sophisticated forms of communication. However, there is growing evidence that we exhibit important limitations when we are asked to perform tasks that require communicative sophistication. I will illustrate some of this evidence, which comes in part from research on the emergence of novel communication systems in the laboratory and in part from research on the use of natural language. Then I will focus on the question of how individuals who have limited communicative skills manage to develop sophisticated forms of communication.
I propose three non-mutually exclusive hypotheses to address the question. The first hypothesis is that communicative sophistication does not originate from sophisticated individuals but emerges in the public arena, as the result of a cultural ratchet effect. The second is that there may be great variability in communicative skills within the human population and that the development of sophisticated forms of communication may be driven by a minority of exceptional communicators. The third hypothesis turns the question on its head, suggesting that human communication may often be much less sophisticated than we think.
I will present various kinds of evidence supporting the second and the third hypotheses and argue that the latter can help us reduce the conceptual gap between the study of human communication and the study of other forms of coordination in humans and animals.
We are looking forward to see you at the talk!

Subject: II. Magyar eye tracking konferencia - Június 10.
Date: 22 April 2016 at 00:14:11 GMT+10
Kedves Kollégák!
Szeretnélek meghívni Benneteket egy konferenciára, amit június 10-re szervezünk, a Kecskeméti Főiskolával közösen.
A tavalyi év pozitív visszajelzései alapján úgy gondoltuk, idén is megrendezzük a hazai eye tracking használók találkozóját.
A konferencia, hasonlóan a tavalyihoz, a szemkamerás kutatások köré szerveződik és három fő szekcióból áll majd; lesz egy oktatási vonala, amelyet Steklács János (a Tanítóképző Kar igazgatója - http://steklacs-janos.webnode.hu/ ) szervez, illetve magának a konferenciának is ők adnak otthont. A második szekció témája a piackutatás/marketing/usability kutatás lesz, ahol piaci és akadémiai előadásokat is várunk. A harmadik szekció területe a pszichológia, amely nagyon nagy terület, de a felhasználás sokszínűsége miatt nem is szűkítenénk tovább, sokféle téma képviseltetheti majd magát.
Jelenleg az előadásokat gyűjtjük, válogatjuk; amennyiben van olyan téma, amit szívesen hoznátok beszéljünk róla és igyekszünk helyet adni neki a programban. Az előadás szólhat alapkutatási eredményekről, vagy egy konkrét projektről. 10-15 perces rövid előadásokra lesz lehetőség.
Természetesen ”csak” hallgatóságként is szívesen látunk minden érdeklődőt!
A résztvevők a három szekcióhoz igazodva nagyon eltérő terültekről lesznek, azonban mindenki viselkedés tudományi kutatásokra használja az eye tracking-et (illetve egyéb eszközöket), ez közös pont. A tavalyi tapasztalatok és terveink szerint ez ismét jó lehetőség lesz nem csak információ cserére, de újabb esetleges együttműködések kialakítására is!
A dátum és helyszín még egyszer: Kecskemét, június 10., 10-től körülbelül 17 óráig.
A részvétel ingyenes, kérlek a kollégáknak is továbbítsátok a meghívást.
Visszajelzéseteket előre is köszönöm!
Üdvözlettel,
Nóra

Dear Cognitive Folks,
The next Fluencia Party will be on 21th April (Thursday) starting at 8.00pm
at Ankert.
Info: https://www.facebook.com/events/223676404661032/
Fluencia is a monthly organized informal "jamboree" for cogsci-,
psychology-related students (undergrads, grads), professors, researchers
from many different universities in Hungary. The idea and motivation is to
facilitate interactions, communication, collaboration among researchers
working here, get to know others and others' interests, topics, etc. And,
of course, to have some drinks and fun in a friendly environment.
Everybody is welcome to attend! If you have any further questions, do not
hesitate to ask.
All the best,
Dezso
