[Koglist] Theoretical Philosophy Forum, Program Change

by Laszlo E. Szabo

THEORETICAL PHILOSOPHY FORUM Institute of Philosophy Faculty of Humanities, Eötvös University Address: Múzeum krt. 4/i, Budapest Program Change!!! Ádám Tamás Tuboly's lecture is moved from May 20 to May 27. The reason is to avoid conflict with Bryan Roberts's lecture in the Institute of Philosophy. FYI: Bryan W. Roberts (LSE, London) “New directions for passing time” May 20 (Wed) 16:00, 1014 Budapest, Országház u. 30., Pepita terem Abstract: The problem of passing time is that it is a pervasive part of our experience, and yet seems to have no natural description in our best scientific theories. After introducing this problem I will point out a new way forward using the concept of ‘time observables’, and then indicate some further applications such as for the characterisation of the direction of time.

[Koglist] Meghívó Prof. Kovács Gyula előadására 2015. május 19. 14:00

by Petra Hermann

Kedves Kollégák! Ezúton szeretném meghívni Önöket az MTA TTK Agyi Képalkotó Központ szervezésében megrendezésre kerülő előadásra, amelyet Prof. Kovács Gyula tart *Intact repetition probability effects in Schizophrenia *címmel. Az előadás időpontja: 2015. május 19. (kedd) 14 óra Helyszín: MTA TTK, 1117 Budapest, Magyar tudósok körútja 2. Az előadás kivonata alább olvasható. Tisztelettel, Hermann Petra *Intact repetition probability effects in Schizophrenia* Gyula Kovács1,2,4, Mareike Grotheer1,2, Lisa Münke3, Szabolcs Kéri4, Igor Nenadic3 1 Institute of Psychology, Friedrich Schiller University Jena, 07743 Jena, Germany 2 DFG Research Unit Person Perception, Friedrich Schiller University Jena, 07743 Jena, Germany 3 Department of Psychiatry and Psychotherapy, Jena University Hospital, 07743 Jena, Germany 4 Department of Cognitive Science, Budapest University of Technology and Economics, 1111 Budapest, Hungary Abstract A growing body of evidences suggests that the comparison of expected and incoming sensory stimuli (the predictive error (ε) processing) is impaired in schizophrenia patients (SZ). For example in studies of mismatch negativity, an ERP component that signals ε, SZ patients show deficits in both the auditory and visual modalities. In order to test the role of impaired ε processing further in SZ, using neuroimaging methods, we applied a repetition suppression (RS) paradigm. Patients diagnosed with SZ (n=17) as well as age and gender matched healthy control subjects (HC, n=17) were presented with pairs of faces, which could either repeat or alternate. Additionally, the likelihood of repetition/alternation trials was modulated in individual blocks of fMRI recordings, testing the effects of repetition probability (P(rep)) on RS. We found a significant RS in the fusiform and occipital face areas, as well as in the lateral occipital cortex that was similar in both subject groups. More importantly, we observed similar P(rep) effects (larger RS in blocks with high frequency of repetitions than in blocks with low repetition likelihood) in both subject groups as well. Crucially, this suggests that repetition reduces the top-down ε for expected, compared to unexpected stimuli in patients with Schizophrenia as well.

[Koglist] [CEU Cogsci Talks] ANNOUNCEMENT: Natasha Kirkham (University of London), Wednesday May 13, 5PM, Department of Cognitive Science [NEW Venue from March 2015!]

by Dora Kampis

Dear All, The next talk in the CEU Cognitive Science seminar series will by given by: Natasha Kirkham (University of London) Date: Wednesday, May 13, 2015, 5 PM NEW Location: Department of Cognitive Science, CEU, Oktober 6 street 7, 1st floor, room 101. Title: "Development occurs in the middle of things": Using the richness of the input to support robust representations. There is robust and reliable evidence that infants are sensitive to regularities in the visual domain, which enables them to extract information for further processing (e.g., Fiser & Aslin, 2002; Kirkham et al., 2002) and to predict upcoming events (e.g., Kirkham et al, 2007; Sobel & Kirkham, 2006; 2007). While these studies, which have presented the babies with sparse (often unimodal) stimuli, offer real insight into how the developing system works in situations without distraction or noise, it leaves open the question as to what happens in a noisier, more ?real-world? environment. Across five eyetracking studies with infants from 4- to 10-months, we show that attention to regularities in the environment shifts across the first year of life: Irrelevant information becomes easier to ignore as the baby gets older, and good performance is highly dependent on the relative weightings of multiple cues, predictiveness, salience, and reliability, (Kirkham et al., 2012; Richardson & Kirkham, 2004; Tummeltshammer & Kirkham, 2013; Tummeltshammer, Mareschal & Kirkham, 2014: Tummeltshammer, Wu, Sobel, & Kirkham, 2014; Wu & Kirkham, 2010). PLEASE NOTE: Our seminar room has a limited capacity. Please arrive early to ensure you get a seat. The talk will begin promptly at 5.

[Koglist] [CEU Cogsci Talks] Reminder: CogSci CEU Departmental Colloquium: May 6, Wednesday: Daniel Richardson (UCL) - Exploring the group mind through mass participation experiments

by Gyorgyne Finta

The CEU Department of Cognitive Science cordially invites you to its talk (as part of its Departmental Colloquium series) by Daniel C. Richardson (Department of Experimental Psychology, University College London) Date: Wednesday, May 6th, 2015 - 17:00-18:30 Exploring the group mind through mass participation experiments Daniel C. Richardson Department of Experimental Psychology University College London During this talk, I will present emerging results and allow audience member to take part in a new experimental paradigm: mass participation games. In our experiments, hundreds of people can play a computer game simultaneously using their smart phones or tablets. We can collect responses from a lecture hall full of people with the precision of a laboratory cubicle. Audience members will explore the behaviour and decision making of groups. Together they will play video games, resolve disagreements and take difficult decisions. Our eventual goal is to address a range of theoretical questions with experimental manipulations and computer modelling. Do participants play as if they were alone, or as a group? If so, do they represent the group as a single entity, or a collection of other agents? What are the dynamics of these behaviours, with learning across many trials? Lastly, what does it feel like to act in concert, or in competition, with a room full of people? - See more at: http://cognitivescience.ceu.edu/events/2015-05-06/departmental-colloquium-d… Exploring the group mind through mass participation experiments� Daniel C.
