Cognitive, linguistic and logical aspects of perspective-taking
|
May 27th, all day workshop on Cognitive, linguistic and logical aspects of perspective-taking
There are rich traditions in cognitive science psychology, linguistics, philosophy, artificial intelligence and logic centring on the theme of perspective-taking: the ability of agents to view information from different viewpoints, and to take the viewpoint of other agents into account. Expressions such as Theory of Mind, Conversational Implicature, Social Cognition, and the Semantics of Propositional Attitudes indicate some relevant themes.
The Cognitive, Linguistic and Logical Aspects of Perspective-taking workshop is intended to gather together researchers from a variety of fields to discuss perspective taking. Both experimental and theoretical approaches will be covered. In order to encourage fruitful interaction, the workshop is intended to be relatively small, but we welcome anyone who wishes to attend. If you wish to do so, please email Torben Braüner <torben@ruc.dk> in advance.
Organized by Torben Braüner, Irina Polyanskaya, Patrick Blackburn
