Dear All,
We are pleased to announce that *submissions are now open* for 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 of Munich, Germany
Iain Couzin - Max Planck Institute of Animal Behavior, University of
Konstanz
Arianna Curioni - Vienna University of Technolog*y*, Austria
Bahar Köymen - University of Manchester, UK
Jennifer Misyak - University of Warwick, UK
Daniel Richardson - University College London, UK
Liran Samuni - Harvard University, US
We invite *poster submissions* from* all areas of* cognitive science. Both
theoretical and empirical posters are welcome.
