Dear all,
The CEU Department of Cognitive Science cordially invites you to its talk
by:
*Andrei Cimpian (NYU)*
*Date: *Wednesday, May 24th, 2017 – 17:00-18:30
*Host:* Gergely Csibra
*Generics and Stereotypes*
Stereotypes are typically defined as beliefs about groups, but this
definition is underspecified. I will ask whether stereotypes are better
characterized as generic beliefs about groups or as quantified beliefs. In
addition to clarifying the cognitive structure of stereotypes, the answer
to this question bears on the longstanding debate about stereotype
accuracy: Whether stereotypes can be said to be accurate depends in part on
what sorts of beliefs they turn out to be.
*Location: *Department of Cognitive Science, CEU, Oktober 6 street 7, room
101.
