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 includedin the conference booklet). There will also be poster presentations.
