[Koglist] [CEU Cogsci Talks] CogSci CEU Departmental Colloquium: May 29, Monday: Ilan Yaniv (Hebrew University) and Chris Frith (University College London)

by Gyorgyne Finta

The CEU Department of Cognitive Science cordially invites you to two talks on free will and decision making by Ilan Yaniv (Hebrew University)<http://crmr-en.huji.ac.il/people/ilan-yaniv> Social Decision Making A Full Professor at the Department of Psychology and a member of the Center for Study of Rationality. He has great interest in psychological and behavioral aspects of individual and interpersonal decision making as well as in negotiations processes. and Chris Frith (University College London)<https://royalsociety.org/people/chris-frith-11469/> Free Will and the Brain Chris Frith is a neuropsychologist whose experiments have helped us to understand the major symptoms of schizophrenia - hallucinations and delusions - in terms of the cognitive mechanisms that underlie conscious experience. A pioneer in the application of non-invasive neuroimaging techniques, he used these to study the relationship between the mind and the brain, and in particular the neural basis of consciousness and free will. Date: Monday 29th May, 16.00-18.00 Location: Department of Cognitive Science, CEU, Oktober 6 street 7, room 101. We are looking forward to see you there!

[Koglist] Opening for a Postdoctoral Research Fellow position in Mate Lengyel`s group

by Gyorgyne Finta

Dear All, The Department of Cognitive Science at Central European University announces an opening for postdoctoral fellows for one year (extendable), starting no later than September 2017, to work on a project in computational cognitive science. The aim of the project is to track changes in human subjects' structured, task-general internal models over time as a result of decay, interference, and learning. For this, a set of novel 'doubly Bayesian' data analytical methods will need to be developed, using state-of-the-art Bayesian statistical and machine learning techniques which can be used to infer humans' internal models formalised as prior distributions in Bayesian models of cognition. The project will also involve a set of stringent, quantifiable criteria which will be systematically applied at each step of the work to rigorously assess the success of the approach. These analyses will be applied to a variety of experimental data sets, collected by our collaborators, in paradigms ranging from perceptual learning, through visual and motor structure learning, to social and concept learning. Position for: Faculty Detailed Job Ad is available here: https://hro.ceu.edu/vacancies/postdoctoral-research-position-in-computation… We very much appreciate if you could spread this news to your colleagues, collaborators and PhD students. Thank you!

[Koglist] [CEU Cogsci Talks] CogSci CEU Departmental Colloquium: Andrei Cimpian, Wednesday 24th, 17:00

by Katarina Begus

Dear all, The CEU Department of Cognitive Science cordially invites you to its talk by: *Andrei Cimpian (NYU)* *Date: *Wednesday, May 24th, 2017 – 17:00-18:30 *Host:* Gergely Csibra *Generics and Stereotypes* Stereotypes are typically defined as beliefs about groups, but this definition is underspecified. I will ask whether stereotypes are better characterized as generic beliefs about groups or as quantified beliefs. In addition to clarifying the cognitive structure of stereotypes, the answer to this question bears on the longstanding debate about stereotype accuracy: Whether stereotypes can be said to be accurate depends in part on what sorts of beliefs they turn out to be. *Location: *Department of Cognitive Science, CEU, Oktober 6 street 7, room 101.

[Koglist] Invitation to the Doctoral Defense of Pavel Voinov, Department of Cognitive Science, on May 29, 2017

by Gyorgyne Finta

The Department of Cognitive Science cordially invites you to the public defense of the PhD thesis Interpersonal Information Integration in Judgment Revision and Collective Judgment Formation The Benefits of Distributed Access to Redundant and Complementary Visual Information in a Shared Environment by Pavel Valeryevich Voinov SUPERVISOR: Gunther Klaus Knoblich SECONDARY SUPERVISOR: Natalie Sebanz Members of the Dissertation Committee: Ágnes Melinda Kovács, Chair, CEU Chris Frith, external examiner, UCL Ilan Yaniv, external examiner, HUJ Abstract One intellectual problem where collaboration can be helpful is coming up with a quantitative judgment under uncertainty. The common consensus among scholars and researchers, though, is that people generally fail to fully realize the advantage of having plural minds. The aim of the present work is to increase our understanding of psychological and social mechanisms that allow interacting individuals to combine their uncertain knowledge into a judgment, and the causes of collective benefit and collective failure in this process. The present work addresses collective judgment as an "information integration" problem in analogy with the process of multi-sensory integration that takes place within the brain (Ernst & Bülthoff, 2004), following the original approach suggested by Bahrami et al. (2012a). It extends existing research on two lines. First, it addresses the process of inter-individual information integration under conditions implying a different degree of structural overlap in the individually available information. The second novel aspect is the focus on non-verbal modes of interaction via a shared environment. The thesis includes two empirical studies, each consisting of a series of behavioral experiments that investigate how environment-mediated interactions can support the process of inter-individual information integration under conditions of individual access to redundant and complementary information. The two studies address two conceptually different processes of inter-individual information integration: individual judgment revision and joint judgment formation. The first study investigates how indirect interactions via a shared environment can help individuals to improve their perceptual judgments by observing another's judgments. The main finding is that whether people can properly integrate observable information in the environment produced by another individual depends on their uncertainty about their own judgment. Crucially, when their own uncertainty is high, people do not discriminate between information of high and low quality in another's judgment. This leads to underperformance in the potentially most beneficial conditions - the ones where people have access to complementary information. The second study investigates how well pairs of participants can coordinate their joint judgment by means of interactions via a shared environment. It addresses the interplay between feedback on accuracy and verbal communication under conditions of simultaneous access to complementary and redundant visual information. Under conditions of access to redundant information, availability of feedback on accuracy turns out to be critical: without it interactions do not lead to an improved judgment. Verbal communication does not seem to play a crucial role, but it is helpful under conditions of access to complementary information. Furthermore, in the latter situation, a reliable collective benefit from interaction can be obtained in the absence of verbal communication, of feedback, or both. The reported studies have three major implications. First, they suggest that in a situation of collective judgment in a shared environment reliable collective benefits from interaction can be obtained without verbal communication. Second, they point to a critical role of a shared agreement on a judgment in this process. Third, they highlight the significance of the factor of structural overlap in individually held information as an important determinant of the amount of collective benefit that collaborators are likely to obtain from social interaction. . The defense will take place at room 101, V. Budapest, Október 6 street 7, 1st floor on Monday, May 29, at 10:00 a.m. With kind regards, Györgyné Finta (Réka) Department Coordinator ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Central European University Department of Cognitive Science H-1051 Budapest Oktober 6 utca 7. tel: (36-1) 887-5138 fax: (36-1) 887-5010 http://www.ceu.edu http://cognitivescience.ceu.edu

[Koglist] [CEU Cogsci Talks] Reminder: CogSci CEU Departmental Colloquium: May 10, Wednesday: Shiri Lev-Ari: How our social network size influences our linguistic skills and linguistic malleability

by Andrea Jenei

The CEU Department of Cognitive Science and the Social Mind Center cordially invites you to its talk by Shiri Lev-Ari <http://www.mpi.nl/people/lev-ari-shiri> (Max Planck Institute for Psycholinguistics, Nijmegen, The Netherlands) Date: Wednesday, May 10, 2017 - 17:00-18:30 Location: Department of Cognitive Science, CEU, Oktober 6 St. 7, room 101 How our social network size influences our linguistic skills and linguistic malleability Does the size of our social network influence how good we are at understanding others or how influenced we are by others' speech patterns? Previous research shows that both infants and adults are better at learning new phonological categories when exposed to multiple speakers compared with only one. In this talk, I'll present converging evidence from individual differences studies, experimental studies, and computational simulations to show that the size of our social network influences our linguistic skills even as adult native speakers, and, in particular, that having a larger social network leads to better comprehension at the phonological and semantic levels. I'll further show that having a smaller social network leads to more malleable representations and use. Thus, aspects of our life-style, such as the size of our social network, can influence how we learn, use, and represent language. We are looking forward to see you at the talk!
