CDC Seminar March 29 Monday Bart Geurts

by Agnes Kovacs

The next talk in the Cognitive Development Center seminar series at the CEU will be given by Bart Geurts: A small theory of behaviour Department of Philosophy University of Nijmegen Date and time: Monday, 29 March, 5.00 pm CEU Cognitive Development Center Hattyuhaz, Level 3, Hattyu u. 14., 1015 Budapest Abstract Based on a wealth of experimental data, it has been argued that, already between their first and second birthdays, children routinely appeal to mental states---goals, perceptions, beliefs, and desires---to explain the behaviour of others. In this talk, I will analyse a range of experiments involving, e.g., non-verbal false-belief tasks, cooperative pointing, and reasoning about goals and desires, and attempt to show that all of them can be accounted for on the assumption that infants have a quite minimal theory of behaviour, which is defined purely in terms of relations between particulars (individuals, places, and times) and is not mentalistic in any deep way. -- Ágnes M.

Idegtudományi Előadás HOLNAP 16:00 - PPKE-ITK -- téma:obezitás

by dreamingtree

Szeretettel várunk minden kedves érdeklődőt kedden a Pázmány-ITKra a Keddi Idegtudományi Előadássorozat eheti előadására, melyet Dr. Cserjési Renáta tart az obeztiásról. Időpont:Kedd, márc. 23. 16hHelyszín:Pázmány P. Kat. Egyetem - ITK (Práter utca 50/a. VIII.ker.), Kari Tanácsterem (204-es szoba) Dr. Cserjési RenátaPost-doctoral researcher of Developmental NeuropsychologyDepartment of Clinical & Developmental Neuropsych.Faculty of Behavioural and Social Sciences, University of Groningenhttp://www.rug.nl/staff/r.cserjesi/index A kóros elhízás (obezitás) neuropszichológiájaObezitásról vagy kóros túlsúlyról akkor beszélünk, mikor a zsírszövetben felhalmozott és raktározott természetes energiakészlet mértéke annyira megnő, hogy annak számos kóros egészségre ártalmas szövődménye lehet, illetve megnöveli a korai halál kockázatát. A túlsúly orvosi értelemben vett szövődményei mellett, olyan pszichológiai problémákkal jár együtt, mint a depresszió vagy a súlyos szorongás a nyugati kultúra által közvetített &bdquo;zsír-fóbia” és a kövérekkel szembeni előítélet miatt. Ezt igazolja az is, hogy azok a betegek, akik szakember segítségét kérik a fogyáshoz, leginkább a pszichológiai problémák miatt fordulnak orvoshoz nem a fizikai vagy orvosi következmények miatt. Annak ellenére, hogy az evészavarok (anorexia és bulimia) napjainkra már konkrét, klinikailag jól definiált és diagnosztizált pszichiátriai betegségek (DSM-IV, DSM-V) az obezitásra még mindig úgy tekintenek, mint súlyos orvosi betegségek kockázati tényezőjére. A kontinuum modell szerint, az evészavarok elhelyezhetőek egy folyamatos spektrumon a restriktív anorexiától a bulímián keresztül a stabil elhízásig (Vandereycken 1982). Ezért az előadás célja az, hogy megvizsgáljuk azokat az érzelem feldolgozási és kognitív kontrol zavarokat, amiket az evészavarokban találtunk elhízott betegek esetében is. Amennyiben igazolni tudjuk a kontinuum modell érvényességét, így egyidejűleg igazolhatjuk azt is, hogy a kóros elhízás nem csupán súlykezelési probléma, hanem az evészavarokkal egyenrangú betegség. Az előadás után kötetlen beszélgetésre invitáljuk Önöket kávé és süti kíséretében! a Szervezők <a href="" target="_blank"></a>

E.J.Lowe`s abstract has arrived !!

by Krisztina Biber

Dear All, I`ve just received the abstract from Professor Lowe so I`m re-sending the invitation Best Kriszta The CEU Philosophy Department cordially invites you to a talk (as part of its Departmental Colloquium series) by Edward Jonathan Lowe(Durham University) on What is the Source of Our Knowledge of Modal Truths? Tuesday, 23 March, 2010, 4.30 PM, Zrinyi 14, Room 412 ABSTRACT There is currently intense interest in the question of the source of our presumed knowledge of modal truths — where by ‘modal truths’ I mean, more specifically, truths concerning what is, or is not, metaphysically possible or necessary. Some philosophers try to locate this source in our capacities to conceive or imagine various actual or non-actual states of affairs, but this approach is open to certain familiar and seemingly powerful objections. A different and ostensibly more promising approach has been developed recently by Timothy Williamson, according to which our capacity for modal knowledge is just an extension, or by-product, of our general capacity to acquire knowledge of true counterfactual conditionals — a capacity that we deploy ubiquitously in everyday life. Williamson’s theory crucially involves a thesis to the effect that modal truths can be analysed or defined in terms of counterfactual truths. In this paper, I shall query Williamson’s account on a number of points, including this thesis. I have in fact for a long time defended the very reverse of this thesis, namely, that counterfactual truths are instead to be defined in terms of modal truths. If modal truths are thus prior to counterfactual truths, it seems hopeless to pursue Williamson’s proposal, and we need an alternative one. And we do in any case, I shall argue, since there are defects in Williamson’s proposal which do not turn on the foregoing point. My own positive proposal, which owes an intellectual debt to the work of Kit Fine on modality and essence, appeals instead to our capacity to grasp essences — where essences are understood not in the currently prevailing fashion, made famous by the work of Saul Kripke, according to which all talk of essences may be explicated in terms of the language of ‘possible worlds’, but rather in a neo-Aristotelian fashion, according to which essences are expressed by ‘real definitions’.
