Dear All, We are pleased to announce the XIV. Dubrovnik Conference on Cognitive Science, which is devoted to the Mechanisms of collective decision-making for cooperative actions. The conference will take place between 18 and 21 May 2023 in Dubrovnik, Croatia. Collective decision-making is ubiquitous in the lives of primates, especially humans. In human groups, collective decisions give rise to various forms of cooperation including the attainment of goals that individuals could not reach on their own, the creation and refinement of artifacts and behavioural practices that benefit entire groups, as well as the establishment of norms and institutions that structure our everyday activities. Understanding how humans and other animals make and coordinate decisions that enable cooperative action has been a central question in the social and biological sciences. This conference brings together researchers from a range of disciplines including cognitive and developmental psychology, social neuroscience, and evolutionary biology who have substantially expanded our knowledge on this topic. By aggregating some of the latest research on the mechanisms underlying decision-making in cooperative actions the conference aims to provide an overview of the current state of the art as well as to identify key questions to be addressed in the future. Invited speakers will include: Bahador Bahrami - Ludwig Maximilian University, Germany Iain Couzin - Max Planck Institute of Animal Behavior, University of Konstanz Arianna Curioni - Vienna University of Technology, Austria Bahar Köymen - University of Manchester, UK Jennifer Misyak - University of Warwick, UK Daniel Richardson - University College London, UK Liran Samuni - Harvard University, US For more information please visit: https://ducog.cecog.eu or email us at: ducog(a)cecog.eu Poster abstract submissions will be open between 1 January and 28 February 2023.
