Dear Cognitive Folks,
The next Fluencia Party will be on 9th February (Friday) starting at 8.00pm
in Élesztő (Tűzoltó utca close to Corvin metro station).
Info: https://www.facebook.com/events/2013110232260580/
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 are 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

METHODS IN NUMERICAL COGNITION WORKSHOP
*Date* January 7, 2019
*Venue* Eötvös Loránd University, Faculty of Education and Psychology
<https://www.ppk.elte.hu/en>, Budapest, Hungary, Kazinczy street, 23-27
<https://www.google.hu/maps/place/E%C3%B6tv%C3%B6s+Lor%C3%A1nd+University+Fa…>,
Room 4 on ground floor

ABOUT THE WORKSHOP
Researchers working in the field of numerical cognition often have a hard
time to find the ideal methods that fit the research aim best and also
please the reviewers. Some methods are less known, some of them are
debated, and consequences of some methods are not studied yet. For example,
how should the subitizing range be calculated, how should the visual
features of non-symbolic stimuli be controlled, how should the counting
knowledge of preschoolers be measured?
The Methods in Numerical Cognition Workshop aims to be a forum for
presenting and discussing any methods related to numerical cognition,
including paradigms, tests, analyses methods, etc. The main aim of the
workshop is to discuss these methods in details.
In line with the aim of the workshop, the talks can be 10-15 minutes long
(the time will depend on the number of submitted talks and will be
announced when the final program is available), and the discussion of the
talks is practically unlimited (within a reasonable limit).
But there is more.
During the workshop we launch a new interactive database-website that
collects methods in numerical cognition, and where researchers can share
their experience and opinion about these methods. This database can be
considered as an online handbook, but it can be continuously updated. Also,
it is a review system with much more transparent methods than most of the
current peer-review options.
The details of this interactive numerical cognition methodological website
will be introduced as a part of the program, and workshop participants can
discuss the details of the functioning of this database, too. Also,
participants will be able to start uploading method summaries, and to start
evaluating uploaded methods. For three months, the website will be
available only for the participants of the workshop.

The CEU Department of Cognitive Science cordially invites you to its talk
by:
Prof. *Sunae Kim* (Eötvös Loránd University)
[web <https://www.researchgate.net/profile/Sunae_Kim5>]
Title: *Children's learning from others and teaching others as selection of
their own social partners*
Date: Wednesday, 17 October 2018
Time: 17:00-18:30
Location: Department of Cognitive Science, CEU, Oktober 6 st. 7, room 10
Abstract:
Humans engage in various forms of social interactions and are selective of
their own social partners. In this talk, I will first present data
addressing how young children select social partners in their learning and
teaching particularly asking what might guide and modulate children’s
selection of their learning partners. First, I will demonstrate that
children’s selection of their learning partners is not an all-or-none kind
of problem. Rather, they seem to be flexible, considering whether someone
can be a potentially valuable social partner. Second, children's selective
learning and teaching do not show parallel performance. Moreover, their
selective learning and teaching are modulated by culture. Next, turning to
metacognitive aspects of learning and teaching, I will present data showing
that young children’s sensitivity to their own knowledge states is enhanced
in social interaction e.g., an informing context. Together, I argue that
children’s notion of learning partners is both facilitated and constrained
by social and cultural contexts. Finally, I will present preliminary data
exploring a developmental precursor to a sensitivity to own uncertainty.
We are looking forward to see you.
