Subject: PLEASE POST - COG SCI '98 CALL FOR PAPERS
CogSci98 -- CALL FOR SUBMISSIONS
Twentieth Annual Meeting of the Cognitive Science Society
August 1 - 4, 1998; University of Wisconsin-Madison
http://psych.wisc.edu/CogSci98/conf.html
We are pleased to announce CogSci98, the Twentieth Annual Meeting of
the Cognitive Science Society, to be held in Madison, Wisconsin, August
1-4, 1998. Because the field of cognitive science exists to promote
cross-disciplinary integration of concepts, methods, epistemologies, and
data, and the empirical and theoretical base of cognitive science can
shed light on the nature of such an interdisciplinary enterprise, CogSci9=
8
will focus on Interdisciplinarity.
This focus will be manifested in the following four ways: First, one
plenary session will be dedicated to the topic of interdisciplinarity.
Second, several invited tutorial symposia designed to provide breadth
of interest will be offered. Third, presentations from the Cognitive
Science Society membership that address interdisciplinarity as an object
of empirical and theoretical research are hereby encouraged for one
strand of the conference program. And fourth, all submissions for
spoken presentations (i.e., symposia and spoken papers) will be
evaluated for their ability to transcend their disciplinary boundaries an=
d
truly address the breadth of the community of cognitive scientists, in
addition to being evaluated for their technical and theoretical merit (se=
e
review criteria below); thus, more general papers and symposia will
have a higher priority for scheduling on the spoken program, and more
specialized topics will be assigned to poster sessions. This call solicit=
s
submissions for four forms of presentation:
STANDARD SPOKEN PAPERS: 20-minute spoken presentations, which if
accepted will be published as 6-page papers in the Proceedings;
STANDARD POSTERS: standard poster presentations, which if accepted
will be published as 6-page papers in the Proceedings;
ABSTRACT POSTERS: poster presentations, which are guaranteed to be
published in the Proceedings as one-page abstracts but can be
submitted only by members of the Cognitive Science Society. The
deadline for submitting proposals for abstract posters is one month later
than that for standard paper and poster presentations, so that persons
who would like to become members of the Society may do so prior to
submitting their abstract posters. Please see
http://www.umich.edu/cogsci/ for information about membership in the
Cognitive Science Society, or contact the Executive Officer of the
Cognitive Science Society, Inc., Colleen Seifert of the University of
Michigan at (313) 764-4253; fax (313) 763-7480 (Attn: Prof. Seifert);
email cogsci who-is-at umich.edu.
SYMPOSIA: 90-minute spoken presentations, including three or more
well-integrated talks on a common topic and possibly a discussant,
which if accepted will be published as one-page abstracts in the
Proceedings.
Submissions for standard spoken papers, standard posters, and
symposia will be reviewed according to the following criteria:
Technical/Theoretical Merit; Relevance to a Broad Audience of Cognitive
Science Researchers; Clarity of Presentation; Significance; and
Originality.
