Cognitive, linguistic and logical aspects of perspective-taking

Thursday, 26th May, 2016

Theory Room 
42.2-37  
IKH Building 42
Roskilde University (RUC)


There are rich traditions in cognitive science, psychology, linguistics, philosophy, artificial intelligence and logic centering 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 and Social Cognition indicate some relevant themes. This year's Perspectives-Taking Meeting follows on from last year's edition, which was also held at RUC.

This year the meeting will be a morning-only event. This is because  another highly relevant workshop, the  Autism Research Network meeting,  is being held the same day at the same location from 13.00 - 17.00. Participants of the Perspectives-Taking Meeting are most welcome (indeed, are  strongly encouraged!) to stay on for the Autism Network Meeting which follows right afterwards. Please email ​Irina Polyanskaya (irinap@ruc.dk) if you want to attend (either or both) of these workshops.

Both meetings are free of charge, and 
are organized by Irina Polyanskaya, Torben Braüner, and Patrick Blackburn.
