Kedves Mindenki!
Szeretettel várunk minden érdeklődőt az ELTE Kognitív Szeminárium
előadására, amelyen
*Tauzin Tibor: A kontingens reaktivitás szerepe a kommunikáció
felismerésében csecsemőknél és kutyánál *
című előadását hallgathatják meg.
Időpont és helyszín: 2016. március 31. (csütörtök), 17:00, ELTE-PPK,
Pszichológiai Intézet, Izabella utca 46, P3-as terem
A társas kontingencia, vagyis a válaszvalószínűség nagysága interaktív
helyzetben, a kommunikáció egy strukturális alapjellemzője. A kontingencia
mértéke és a kontingens reaktivitás fajtája segíthet felismerni és
elkülöníteni a kommunikatív és nem kommunikatív interakciókat. Ez alapjául
szolgálhat többek között a kommunikációs szándék és kommunikatív ágensek
felismerésének. Az előadás két olyan empirikus tanulmányt mutat be, amiben
csecsemőknél és kutyánál vizsgáltuk a kontingens reaktivitásra mutatott
érzékenységet és azt, hogy ez miként segíthet a kommunikáció felismerésén
túl, a kommunikáció tartalmának kikövetkeztetésében.

*Title:* *Trans-temporal identity judgment in infants and great apes: Is
object individuation a primordial form of psychological essentialism?*
*Date*: Wednesday, 30 March 2016
*Time:* 17:00-18:30
*Location*: Department of Cognitive Science, CEU, Oktober 6 st. 7, room 101
*Abstract:*
Human reasoning is characterized by psychological essentialism. In
reasoning about objects we distinguish between deep essential properties
that define the objects’ identity and superficial properties that can be
changed without altering the identity of the object. Painting a tiger like
a crocodile, e.g., does not turn it into a crocodile.
Essentialist reasoning has been amply documented in adults and older
children from age four (Gelman, 2003; Keil, 1982). Little is known so far
about the roots of psychological essentialism, both ontogenetically and
phylogenetically. In particular, it is unclear whether psychological
essentialism is based on the acquisition of linguistic means (such as kind
terms) and is therefore uniquely human, or whether it is a more fundamental
cognitive capacity possible without language. In a series of experiments
with human infants and non-human apes we explored whether sortal object
individuation in these subjects already involves essentialist modes of
thinking.
We are looking forward to see you.

by
Stacie Friend (Birkbeck, University of London)
on
Reality in Fiction
Tuesday, 29 March 2016, 5.30 PM, Zrinyi 14, Room 412
ABSTRACT
I argue that judgements of what is ‘true in a fiction’ presuppose the Reality Assumption: the assumption that everything that is (really) true is also fictionally the case, unless excluded by features of the work. By contrast with the more familiar Reality Principle, the Reality Assumption is not a rule or ‘principle of generation’ for inferring implied content from what is explicit in a text. Instead it provides an array of real-world truths that can be used in making such inferences. Drawing on empirical evidence, I claim that reliance on the Reality Assumption is essential to our ability to understand stories. However, the Reality Assumption has several unintuitive consequences, not least that what is fictionally the case includes countless facts that neither authors nor readers could or should ever consider. I argue that such consequences provide no reason to reject the Reality Assumption.
Professor Friend has provided us with a now published article that is presently posted on e-Learning.
All philosophy department faculty and students should have access to e-Learning.
The document is also attached to this message for your convenience.

http://www.uva.nl/over-de-uva/organisatie/medewerkers/content/e/l/m.vanelk/…
Date: Wednesday, March 23, 2016 - 17:00-18:30
Host: Günther Knoblich
Location: Department of Cognitive Science, CEU, Oktober 6 street 7,
room 101.
Agency detection and supernatural beliefs
Evolutionary accounts of religion have proposed that an evolved bias to
over-detect the presence of other agents may be at the basis of belief
in supernatural agents. More recently, similar ideas have been proposed
in terms of the predictive coding framework, according to which prior
beliefs come to dominate bottom-up perceptual input. In this talk I will
present a series of studies scrutinizing the relation between
supernatural beliefs, perceived agency in the environment and feelings
of agency with respect to one’s actions. Although experimental
manipulations of supernatural beliefs and experiences (e.g. through
priming or placebo brain stimulation) did not affect agency detection,
the hypothesized relation between agency detection biases and
supernatural beliefs was tentatively supported by using an individual
difference approach (including a developmental study and field studies
with psychic believers). However, survey data (from large samples in the
US and the Netherlands) indicates that the relative contribution of
cognitive biases is only marginal with respect to the role of cultural
learning in sustaining supernatural beliefs.
We are looking forward to see you at the talk!
