Dear all,
The CEU Department of Cognitive Science invites you to the following talk:
Jean-Remy Hochmann (ISC Marc Jeannerod)
Title: Incomplete Language of Thought in infancy
Abstract:
The view that infants possess a full-fledged propositional Language of Thought (LoT) is
appealing, providing a unifying account for infants’ precocious reasoning skills in
several domains. In this talk, I'll present evidence that preverbal infants possess
structured mental representations, with abstract generalizable content. However, I'll
argue that careful appraisal of empirical evidence suggests that infants lack a crucial
component of a propositional LoT: discrete representations of abstract relations.
