Workshop

December 7-8th, 2010

A little plug for an upcoming workshop in Amsterdam entitled: "From cognitive science and psychology to empirically-informed philosophy of logic". Quite a mouthful, but an interesting topic. The list of speakers is below, and the workshop also has a call for papers. More information here. I've already seen  Pelletier talk about reasoning and generics, a topic that proved really interesting. Much recommended.


Confirmed speakers:

Johan van Benthem: Opening

David Over: "New paradigm phychology of conditionals"

Michiel van Lambalgen: "Logical form in cognitive processes"

Helen de Cruz: "Animal logic, an evolutionary perspective on deductive reasoning"

Rafael Nuñez: "Towards a cognitive science of proof"

Francis Jeffrey Pelletier: "Reasoning with generic information"

Catarina Dutilh Novaes: "Formal languages and the extended mind"
