The aim of the Society is "to promote interaction between philosophers and psychologists on issues of common concern". Psychologists, neuroscientists, linguists, computer scientists and biologists are encouraged to report experimental, theoretical and clinical work that they judge to have philosophical significance. In recent years ESPP sessions have covered such topics as spatial concepts, simulation theory, attention, problems of consciousness, emotion, perception, early numerical cognition, memory and time, motor imagery, counterfactuals, reasoning, vagueness, mental causation, action, thought without language, externalism, connectionism, and the interpretation of neuropsychological results. Submitted papers are refereed and selected on the basis of quality and relevance to both psychologists and philosophers. Papers should not exceed a length of 20 minutes (about 8 double-spaced pages). Papers must be accompanied by a camera-ready 300-word abstract (to be included in the conference booklet). There will also be poster presentations. A submission for a poster presentation should consist of a 500-word abstract. Submitted papers may also be considered for presentation as posters. The deadline for submission is March 1st, 1999. Electronic submissions are preferred and should be sent to both Elisabeth Pacherie and Beate Sodian: <pacherie(a)poly.polytechnique.fr.fr, sodian(a)psychologie.uni-wuerzburg.de> If you cannot send your submission through email, please send three copies to: Dr. Elisabeth Pacherie or Dr. Beate Sodian CREA Department of Psychology Ecole Polytechnique Universitaet Wuerzburg 1, rue Descartes Roentgenring 10 75005 Paris - France D-97070 Wuerzburg, Germany Local arrangements are being handled by Dr. Naomi Eilan.
