[Koglist] [CEU Cogsci Talks] CogSci CEU Colloquium: 'Emotion Processing in Homo and Pan' by Mariska Kret - November 20, 5pm

by Andrea Jenei

The CEU Department of Cognitive Science and the Social Mind Center cordially invites you to its talk by Mariska Kret<https://www.mariskakret.com/> (Comparative Psychology and Affective Neuroscience (CoPAN) Lab, Leiden University) Date: Wednesday, November 20, 2019 - 17:00-18:30 Location: CEU, Oktober 6. Street 7, room 101 Emotion Processing in Homo and Pan Evolution prepared group-living species, (non)human primates included, to quickly recognize and adequately respond to conspecifics' emotional expressions. Different theories propose that mimicry of emotional expressions facilitates these swift adaptive reactions. When species unconsciously mimic their companions' expressions of emotion, they feel reflections of their emotions which informs social decisions. The majority of emotion research has focused on full-blown facial expressions of emotion in humans. However, facial muscles can sometimes be controlled; humans know when to smile, and when not to. In this talk, I therefore argue for a broader exploration of emotion signals from sources beyond the face or face muscles that are more difficult to control. More specifically, I will show that implicit sources including the whole body and subtle autonomic responses including pupil-dilation are picked up by observers and influence subsequent behavior. In my research, I take a comparative approach and investigate similarities and differences in the perception of emotions between humans and great apes. I will here discuss new, recently collected data and suggest avenues for future research that will hopefully eventually lead to a better comprehension of emotional expressions and how we come to understand each other's emotions. We are looking forward to see you at the talk!

[Koglist] [CEU Cogsci Talks] EXTRA CEU Departmental Colloquium, November 19 @ 16:00: Jordy Kaufman (Swinburne University of Technology) -- Young Children Social Cognition and Behaviour in a Technological World

by Denis Tatone

Dear All, Exceptionally next week we will have an additional seminar on Tuesday at 4pm. Prof. Jordy Kaufman (Swinburne University of Technology) [web <http://www.swinburne.edu.au/health-arts-design/staff/profile/index.php?id=j…> ] Title: *Young Children Social Cognition and Behaviour in a Technological World* Date: *Tuesday, 19 November 2019* Time: *16:00 - 17:00 * Location: Department of Cognitive Science, CEU, Oktober 6 st. 7, room 101 Abstract: In this talk Dr Kaufman will present recent findings from multiple lines of research involving young childrens social behaviour and thinking in the presence of technology. These include studies on children’s helpfulness towards a humanoid robot, children’s interactions with parents while playing with a touchscreen tablet, and on the parasocial feedback given to children playing touchscreen apps. We are looking forward to see you.

by Paula Fischer and Barbu Revencu | BCCCD 2020 Chairs

Dear Colleagues, The Cognitive Development Center at CEU is pleased to announce the 10th annual BCCCD meeting in Budapest, Hungary (January 9-11, 2020). We welcome symposium and poster submissions from all fields of cognitive development. The regular conference will be preceded by a 10-year Anniversary Workshop<https://cdc.ceu.edu/anniversary_workshop> to celebrate the establishment of the Cognitive Development Center at CEU in 2010. While CEU has been facing the challenge of relocating most of its operations to another city<https://www.ceu.edu/article/2018-12-03/ceu-forced-out-budapest-launch-us-de…>, we would like to reassure all prospective participants that both the conference and the pre-conference workshop will take place in the Budapest campus of CEU. Budapest CEU Conference on Cognitive Development 2020 (BCCCD20) Conference Dates: January 9-11, 2020 Pre-Conference Anniversary Workshop: January 8-9, 2020 Location: Central European University, Budapest<https://goo.gl/maps/r9VjtsYjmEN2> Website: http://bcccd.org Facebook: Event<https://www.facebook.com/events/359891007935132> Symposium finder<https://www.facebook.com/groups/192549250851825/> (where participants can find each other to create a potential symposium for BCCCD) INVITED SPEAKERS Susan Carey (Harvard University)<https://psychology.fas.harvard.edu/people/susan-e-carey> Susan Gelman (University of Michigan)<https://lsa.umich.edu/psych/people/faculty/gelman.html> Michael Tomasello (Duke University)<https://psychandneuro.duke.edu/people/michael-tomasello> DEADLINES FOR SUBMISSIONS Symposia & papers: September 8, 2019 midnight CET (GMT+1) Posters: October 8, 2019 midnight CET (GMT+1) NOTIFICATIONS OF ACCEPTANCE Symposia & papers: September 30, 2019 Posters: October 31, 2019 FOLLOW US CEU Cognitive Development Center on Facebook: Cognitive Development Center at CEU<https://www.facebook.com/CognitiveDevelopmentCenteratCEU/> CEU Cognitive Development Center on Twitter: @CogDevCeu<https://twitter.com/cogdevceu?lang=en> CEU Cognitive Development Center on YouTube: Cognitive Development Center CEU<https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCy1u_m6zHrcXZPL9pyNLAVw> Best, Paula Fischer & Barbu Revencu BCCCD20 Chairs

[Koglist] [CEU Cogsci Talks] CEU Departmental Colloquium, November 6: Attila Keresztes (Hungarian Academy of Sciences) - A case for a lifespan developmental approach to cognition: Hippocampal contributions to memory across the lifespan

by Denis Tatone

The CEU Department of Cognitive Science cordially invites you to its talk by: Dr. *Attila Keresztes *(Hungarian Academy of Sciences) [web <https://www.attilakeresztes.com/>] Title: *A case for a lifespan developmental approach to cognition: Hippocampal contributions to memory across the lifespan* Date: Wednesday, 6 November 2019 Time: 17:00-18:30 Location: Department of Cognitive Science, CEU, Oktober 6 st. 7, room 101 Abstract: Developmental and general approaches to the neural architecture of cognition have reciprocal and beneficial relations. In this talk, I will present research that exemplifies how general computational and animal models point to potential reasons for age differences in memory, and how memory developmental phenomena can help clarify the role of functional subdivisions within brain areas implementing memory. In particular, the hippocampus keeps a fine balance between computations that extract commonalities of incoming information (i.e. generalization through pattern completion) and computations that enable encoding of highly similar events into unique representations (i.e. memory specificity through pattern separation). During early ontogeny, the rapid and cumulative acquisition of world knowledge through generalization contrasts slower improvements in the ability to lay down highly specific, long-lasting memories. At the other end of the lifespan, an early decrease in memory specificity is paralleled with relatively intact generalization. I will highlight recent behavioral and neuroimaging evidence suggesting that (1) maturational differences among subfields within the hippocampus contribute to the lead-lag relation between generalization and specificity during childhood and adolescence, (2) scenescent changes within the hippocampus differentially affect specificity and generalization. Based on these results, I propose that developmental changes within the hippocampus affect the fine balance between specificity and generalization across the human lifespan. We are looking forward to see you.
