[Koglist] Fluencia Party on 9th February (Friday)

by Dezso Nemeth

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 -------------------------------------- NEMETH, Dezso (PhD) Brain, Memory and Language Lab: http://www.memory-and-language.com Phone: +36-1-4614500/3565, +36-1-4614500/3519

Dear all, The CEU Department of Cognitive Science cordially invites you to its talk by: Ira Noveck (CNRS & Université de Paris-Cité)<https://sites.google.com/site/iranoveck/home> “Revealing the role of intentions through experimental pragmatics" Date: Tuesday, September 27, 2022 – 16:00-17:30 (CET) Host: Christophe Heintz Location: D002 tiered (QS Vienna) and Zoom PLEASE NOTE: anyone not affiliated with CEU wishing to attend in person in Vienna must RSVP through the link below in order to get access to the lecture theatre: https://forms.office.com/r/Pepre07W4b Join Zoom Meeting https://ceu-edu.zoom.us/j/99751279079?pwd=bFd4SHJsb3NRQVpHOXpLYVM5MXo3dz09 Meeting ID: 997 5127 9079 Passcode: 928403 ABSTRACT: Gricean theory has (obviously) been inspirational for experimentalists who investigate pragmatic phenomena. For example, most experimental papers that describe scalar implicature (e.g. consider how the utterance “some TRUMP voters believe that the 2020 election was fraudulent” can be understood to pragmatically mean “some but not all…”) are quick to cite Grice’s theory of communication by pointing out how pragmatic enrichment involves detecting a maxim violation and drawing out an implied meaning. However, these same papers typically go on to decompose scalar implicature into a mechanical two-step process (e.g. find a more informative alternative to some and negate it) that – ultimately -- hardly seems Gricean at all. That is, many of us ignore the fact, or forget, that Grice, as an ordinary language theorist, proposed an original model of communication that relies on intention-reading. The upshot is that intention-reading has been largely overlooked in experimental pragmatic investigations. In this talk, I will present two studies that bring Gricean intention-reading back to the center of language comprehension. One of these concerns what Grice would consider to be a conversational implicature (i.e. scalar implicatures like the one above) and another that he would consider to be a conventional implicature (concerning the French response Si, in which one gives an affirmative response to a negative question; see Noveck et al., 2021). These studies will highlight how intention-reading can be isolated as a factor in language comprehension. We look forward to seeing you there!

[Koglist] BCCCD23 - deadline approaching for posters and pre-conference workshop/tutorial proposals - October 1

by Eszter Körtvélyesi and Rachel Dudley | BCCCD 2023 Chairs

Dear Colleagues, We are quickly approaching the deadline to submit posters for BCCCD23 or proposals for pre-conference workshops/tutorials! The submission window will close on Saturday, October 1, for acceptance decisions by October 31st. BCCCD23<https://bcccd.org/> will take place in Budapest, Hungary from January 5-7, 2023. Alongside our invited program and submitted program of papers and symposia, we welcome 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. We also welcome 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 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. For more information, please visit https://bcccd.org/.

[Koglist] DUCOG2023: XIV. Dubrovnik Conference on Cognitive Science - Mechanisms of collective decision-making for cooperative actions

by DUCOG - Dubrovnik Conference on Cognitive Science

Dear All, We are pleased to announce the XIV. Dubrovnik Conference on Cognitive Science, which is devoted to the Mechanisms of collective decision-making for cooperative actions. The conference will take place between 18 and 21 May 2023 in Dubrovnik, Croatia. Collective decision-making is ubiquitous in the lives of primates, especially humans. In human groups, collective decisions give rise to various forms of cooperation including the attainment of goals that individuals could not reach on their own, the creation and refinement of artifacts and behavioural practices that benefit entire groups, as well as the establishment of norms and institutions that structure our everyday activities. Understanding how humans and other animals make and coordinate decisions that enable cooperative action has been a central question in the social and biological sciences. This conference brings together researchers from a range of disciplines including cognitive and developmental psychology, social neuroscience, and evolutionary biology who have substantially expanded our knowledge on this topic. By aggregating some of the latest research on the mechanisms underlying decision-making in cooperative actions the conference aims to provide an overview of the current state of the art as well as to identify key questions to be addressed in the future. Invited speakers will include: Bahador Bahrami - Ludwig Maximilian University, Germany Iain Couzin - Max Planck Institute of Animal Behavior, University of Konstanz Arianna Curioni - Vienna University of Technology, Austria Bahar Köymen - University of Manchester, UK Jennifer Misyak - University of Warwick, UK Daniel Richardson - University College London, UK Liran Samuni - Harvard University, US For more information please visit: https://ducog.cecog.eu or email us at: ducog(a)cecog.eu Poster abstract submissions will be open between 1 January and 28 February 2023. On behalf of the organisers, Georgina Török Sebastian Grüneisen - Conference chairs
