[Koglist] ELTE Cognitive Seminar - talk by Tristan Bekinschtein - 2021. October 14.

by Zsuzsanna Nemecz

Dear all, We would like to invite you to the following talk by Tristan Bekinschtein, organized as part of the ELTE Cognitive Seminar series. Time and date:16:00 (CET), Thursday, 14. 10. 2021. Speaker:Tristan Bekinschtein (University of Cambridge) Title: How arousal modulates cognitive processes: using falling asleep people to learn how thinking fragments Abstract:Throughout the day our level of arousal and alertness varies, affecting cognitive performance. Chernobyl, work-related mistakes, when you submit an email and then regret it, a myriad of examples of changes that illustrate how alertness modulates the way we think and do things. In the Consciousness and Cognition Lab these last 10 years we have been characterising cognitive control and perceptual decision making when people transition from full alert and attentive to relaxed and drowsy. Low Alertness makes people slower and more variable, but depending on the cognitive processes (via task), the level of mistakes may or may not change. The sharpness of a decision seems to decrease and we think this may be explained by a relaxation of the criterion, the strictness of what is decided with lower alertness, and that the efficiency in the accumulation of evidence to reach the decision is what may be driving these changes. It is this arousal internal fluctuation that allows us to characterise cognitive processes in a pseudocausal manner.

[Koglist] BCCCD22: Submission reminder

by Hanna Marno and Bálint Varga | BCCCD 2022 Ch airs

Dear Colleagues, We would like to remind you that abstract submissions (for on-site and virtual symposia, talks, and posters, as well as virtual presentations) for the 12th annual BCCCD meeting will be accepted until September 30, 2021 (one week from now). We are still hopeful that the conference, organized by The Cognitive Development Center at CEU, can be arranged in a hybrid format (January 6-8 & 10-14, 2022) and we will see many of you at Budapest. As stated before, the first, on-site component will take place at the Budapest campus of CEU, from 6 to 8 January. As usual, this section will include invited and submitted talks and symposia, as well as poster presentations. While mainly an in-person event, emphasizing face-to-face networking, talks and symposia will be streamed online during this component with additional virtual participation options. A second, virtual component will take place online during the subsequent week, from 10 to 14 January. On-site participants will take part in this component as well but we welcome additional submissions of empirical and theoretical work from those who prefer or are able to present only virtually. All presenters will have their dedicated channel on an online platform, with their material (video & other) uploaded directly into the channel, so that attendees will have access to the presentations that they can discuss in the same space. Additionally, presenters will be asked to be online in their channel during assigned sessions, so that participants in all time zones can attend each other's presentation slots. Regarding the symposia submissions, please indicate also your preferences whether you would be able to attend the on-site conference and present in person at Budapest, or you would prefer to join only the virtual component of the conference. (You can submit a symposium proposal for either fully on-site or fully virtual format. So in case some speakers can only make it online, we ask you to submit for the latter, fully virtual format where all speakers present their talks during the online part of the conference.) We are committed to create an impactful and inclusive conference in spite of the changing circumstances. With this hybrid format, we want to ensure that all registered participants will be able to benefit from similar opportunities during BCCCD22. For more information, please visit https://bcccd.org/ .

[Koglist] CogStat workshop statisztikát oktató kollégák számára

by Krajcsi Attila

Kedves Mindenki, A CogStat oktatásban való használatát támogatandó tartunk egy workshopot magyar nyelven szeptember 20-án. A szoftver jelenleg elsősorban a pszichológus BA oktatás során is tanított eljárásokat ismeri (bár sok ponton ezen már túlmutat), ezért használható lehet más olyan területeken is, ahol hasonló eljárásokat alkalmaznak, mint pl. nyelvészet, etológia, pedagógia, stb. Elsősorban olyan kollégáknak javasoljuk a részvételt, akik ilyen területeken tanítanak. Az eddigi tapasztalatok alapján a szoftver segítségével a hallgatók gyorsabban és pontosabban tudnak elemzéseket végezni, pontosabban tudják értelmezni az adatokat, és az oktatás során több idő marad a koncepcionális háttér megértésére, és kevesebb időt kell azzal tölteni, hogy mikor hová klikkeljenek, és melyik táblázat melyik sorát keressék. További információ és regisztráció a workshop weboldalán érhető el: https://github.com/cogstat/cogstat/wiki/Workshop-2021-Szeptember-Online Üdv, Attila ------------------------------------------- Attila Krajcsi https://www.thenumberworks.org

[Koglist] ELTE Cognitive Seminar - talk by Bálint Forgács - 24. 06. 2021

by Zsuzsanna Nemecz

Dear all, We would like to invite you to the following talk by Bálint Forgács, organized as part of the ELTE Cognitive Seminar series. Time and date:16:00 (CET), Thursday, 24. 06. 2021. Speaker:Bálint Forgács Title:Why embodiment cannot become a full-fledged model of cognition Abstract:Embodied cognition has become a highly influential model in the past two decades not only of the neural implementation of language but that of "high-level" cognition as well. Research findings supporting the theory, however, do not stand on firm grounds, as truly decisive experiments and data have not been published. First, I am going to provide an overview of the most pressing theoretical concerns with the theory, such as the question of its novelty (e.g., the eternal debate of imageless thought), its associationist stance with respect to neurocognitive functioning, and its falsifiability (as it often offers axioms instead of hypotheses). Next, I am going to review the limits of the available neuroscientific data (e.g., the automaticity of early sensorimotor activations). Then, I am going to argue, based on my recent findings, that the neural processing of metaphor do not support the proposal of embodiment that abstract thought is enabled by metaphorical mappings of concrete, sensorimotor experience. Even though research into the embodied nature of cognition brought some important results (the influences between "low-" and "high-level" cognition), it does not have the firepower to become a self-sufficient, comprehensive model of cognition. The conclusion might be less surprising given that its theoretical innovations, at least from an information-processing perspective, are mostly neo-behaviorist frequency and association based models in new clothes - which meant a step backwards from models conceptualizing brain and cognition by assuming abstract, symbolic, algebraic operations.
