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

Dear Colleagues,
This week is the last opportunity to submit abstracts for talks and symposia proposals for BCCCD23. The submission window for talks and symposia will close on Sunday, July 31.
BCCCD23<https://bcccd.org/> will take place in Budapest, Hungary from January 5-7, 2023. Alongside our invited program, we welcome symposium, paper and poster submissions reporting studies from all fields of cognitive development. Previous BCCCD meetings featured a wide range of topics, such as communication, pragmatics, social cognition, conceptual development, language acquisition, numeracy, object cognition, perceptual learning, inductive learning, memory, executive function, metacognition, cognitive bases of culture, and comparative cognition.
New this year, we have a much earlier deadline for submission of talks and symposia in order to accommodate our expanded reviewer pool (while still maintaining our traditional late submission deadline for poster presentations). We are also welcoming proposals for half-day pre-conference events, such as workshops or tutorials, that would be relevant to the BCCCD audience.
INVITED SPEAKERS
H. Clark Barrett<http://www.hclarkbarrett.com/> (University of California, Los Angeles)
Anne Christophe<https://lscp.dec.ens.fr/fr/member/623/anne-christophe> (CNRS & Ecole normale supérieure – PSL, Paris)
Kang Lee<https://www.kangleelab.com/> (University of Toronto)
IMPORTANT DATES
Talk submission deadline: July 31, 2022 midnight CEST (GMT+1)
Symposia submission deadline: July 31, 2022 midnight CEST (GMT+1)
Poster submission deadline: October 1, 2022 midnight CEST (GMT+1)
Pre-conference event submission deadline: October 1, 2022 midnight CEST (GMT+1)
Notification of acceptance: October 31, 2022
Registration opens: November 1, 2022
Despite the unpredictable development of global health conditions in the past years, we are optimistic that BCCCD23 can take place in Budapest as in pre-pandemic times, with hybrid online formats available for those who cannot join us in person. However, we are prepared to transition to a fully online format (as in 2021 and 2022) if necessary, and we will keep you apprised of any developments as they occur.
While CEU has been facing the challenge of relocating most operations to Vienna, we reassure all prospective participants that we are committed to maintaining the tradition of the Budapest campus of CEU as the site of BCCCD meetings in 2023 and beyond.

Subject: Position open at University of Groningen: Assistant Professor Qualitative Methods at Theory and History of Psychology Unit
Dear colleagues,
our long-term member Annette Mülberger asked us to disrtribute the message about a new position that is open at the University of Groningen. Further information about the position can be found below.
--------------------------
Assistant Professor Qualitative Methods at Theory and History of Psychology Unit (222520)
Job description
The Faculty of Behavioural and Social Sciences of the University of Groningen invites applications for a permanent assistant professorship position in Qualitative Methods. This position will be located in the unit Theory & History of Psychology.
Despite the dominance of quantitative methods in psychological research, in recent years, qualitative research methods have gained wider recognition. A series of qualitative methods and techniques are available, such as empirical case studies, social-action research, as well as mixed methods. The main qualitative data collection methods are interviews, focus groups, observations, and the analysis of documents and artifacts.
We are looking for a colleague with proficiency in qualitative methods; a researcher with psychological training and broad interests, motivated to get involved in teaching, teaching methods and supervision tasks in methodology and theoretical courses at the Department. We want a team player who would be willing to collaborate on a long-term with the Theory & History of Psychology Unit in teaching, management, and research.
The Theory & History of Psychology Unit has been promoting qualitative approaches for some time, contributing to, and assessing critically and historically, a great variety of areas such as basic, industrial, developmental, clinical, neuro- and forensic psychology. Furthermore, the international team supports values such as moral integrity and social inclusiveness towards cultural diversity (be this in terms of gender, identity or ethnicity).
Qualifications
* a completed PhD in psychology or social sciences
* training and proficiency in qualitative research methods
* publications in peer-reviewed journals presenting research on any psychological topic (preferably including methodological or meta-theoretical reflections), based on qualitative methods (we value quality over quantity)
* interest in Philosophy and History of Psychology (let us know about this in your motivation letter)
* communicative skills and high-level in English are required, as well as at least one other second language proficiency (any language will be valued), as well as willingness to learn Dutch at B2/C1 level (in case this is not already the other or one of the other language(s))
* experience in teaching (Basic Education Qualification is valued and, in case the candidate does not yet have it, the willingness to obtain a Basic Education Qualification is required)
* additionally, some general competences required for any assistant professor working at a Dutch university are: conceptual capacity, environment orientation, presenting and result orientation.
Organisation
Since its foundation in 1614, the University of Groningen has enjoyed an international reputation as a dynamic and innovative centre of higher education offering high-quality teaching and research.

Alexander Cruise: Continuous (Real-Time) Dynamics Approach to Study
Numerical Cognition
In this paper, we applied computer mouse-tracking for the first time to
investigate (across 3 Experiments) how interaction between (symbolic)
Arabic numerals and (non-symbolic) physical size, the so-called size
congruity effect, reflected in the streaming x,y-coordinates kinematics of
a computer mouse trajectories. I will discuss why methodological advantages
of capturing real-time cognitive dynamics in a continuous fashion (over
just analyzing discrete summary statistics measures, such as RT's and
accuracies) provides better ability to elucidate at which processing stage
(in transition from perception-to-action) the SCE emerges, and how it is
resolved over time by the brain. Finally, the observed findings will be
discussed in context of two competing models of SCE: the early and the late
interaction models.

Title: Prediction as a mechanism supporting language learning
Abstract: Young children can exploit the syntactic context of a novel word to narrow down its probable meaning (syntactic bootstrapping). I propose that syntactic bootstrapping relates to a larger cognitive model: predictive processing. According to this model, we perceive and make sense of the world by constantly predicting what will happen next in a probabilistic fashion. I will outline evidence that prediction operates within language acquisition and show how this framework helps us understand the way lexical knowledge refines syntactic predictions, and how syntactic knowledge refines predictions about novel words’ meanings. I end by discussing some challenges of applying the predictive processing framework to syntactic bootstrapping and propose new avenues to investigate in future work.
Let me know if you would like to schedule a meeting with the speaker, online or in-person.
