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
