[Koglist] [CEU Cogsci Talks] REMINDER - - today - - CogSci CEU Departmental Colloquium: Kiley Hamlin (University of British Columbia)

by Barbara Pomiechowska

The CEU Department of Cognitive Science cordially invites you to its today's talk by: *Kiley Hamlin (University of British Columbia)* *Date: *Wednesday, February 22, 2016 – 17:00-18:30 *Host:* Gergely Csibra *The infantile origins of human moral judgment: studies with preverbal infants and toddlers* How do humans come to have a “moral sense”? Are adults’ conceptions of which actions are right and which are wrong, of who is good and who is bad, who deserves praise and who deserves blame wholly the result of experiences like observing and interacting with others in one’s cultural environment and explicit teaching from parents, teachers, and religious leaders? Do all of the complexities in adult’s moral judgments reflect hard-won developmental change coupled with the emergence of advanced reasoning skills? This talk will explore evidence that, on the contrary, infants’ and toddlers’ social behaviors and social preferences map surprisingly well onto adults’ moral ones. Within the first year of life, infants prefer those who help versus harm third parties, those who reward prosocial individuals and punish wrongdoers, and even focus on the intentions that drive others’ actions rather than the outcomes that result from them. In the second year of life, toddlers are motivated to engage in both prosocial and antisocial behaviors toward third parties; these behaviors are informed by those third parties’ past prosocial and antisocial acts. Finally, male infants' performance on infant and toddler tasks predicts parent-reported social and moral functioning in preschool. These results suggest that the human moral sense is supported, at least in part, by extremely early-developing mechanisms for social evaluation and action. *Location: *Department of Cognitive Science, CEU, Oktober 6 street 7, room 101.

[Koglist] [CEU Cogsci Talks] REMINDER: CogSci CEU Departmental Colloquium: February 15, Wednesday: Nausicaa Pouscoulous (UCL): Pragmatics is child’s play

by Gyorgyne Finta

REMINDER: The CEU Department of Cognitive Science cordially invites you to its talk as part of the Departmental Colloquium series by Nausicaa Pouscoulous, UCL Date: Wednesday, February 15, 2016 – 17:00-18:30 Host: Christophe Heintz Pragmatics is child’s play Recent developmental research on social cognition indicates that pragmatics play a grounding role in the development of children's communicative skills even before they utter their first words. Much evidence in language acquisition also suggests that young children could not learn to speak without impressive pragmatic abilities. In stark contrast with this picture, linguistic pragmatic inferences (e.g., reference assignment, implicatures, metaphors, presuppositions and irony) appear to develop later than other linguistic abilities. Pragmatic inferences, such as those involved in understanding implicit and non-literal meaning, require the ability to recognise communicative intentions, as well as to take into account common ground (or mutual knowledge). Empirical findings suggest that prelinguistic children already master these skills. Words and syntax, it seems, are all there is left to learn for children to become perfect little ‘Gricean’ comprehenders. What, then, makes linguistic pragmatic phenomena so difficult to grasp for preschoolers? This talk tries to reconcile the development of pre-linguistic and linguistic pragmatic abilities by presenting data on three phenomena: scalar implicatures, presupposition and metaphor. I will discuss evidence showing these phenomena might be understood much earlier than prior results suggest, and that several factors – independently of children’s pragmatic abilities per se – may explain children’s apparent struggle with pragmatic inferences.
