Porto, Portugal
It is our great pleasure to announce that the 23rd meeting of the European Society for Cognitive Psychology (ESCoP) will be held in Porto (Portugal), hosted by the Center for Psychology from the University of Porto.
Early Career Publication Awards go to Daniele Gatti (PhD award) for the paper “Decomposing the Semantic Processes Underpinning Veridical and False Memories” and to Anna Förster (post-doc award) for the paper “The Human Cognitive System Corrects Traces of Error Commission on the Fly.” Congratulations!
We are looking for a Research Assistant (RA) to join the Neuroscience of Perception and Action (NPA) Lab at the Italian Institute of Technology (IIT) in Rome. The candidate should be fluent in spoken and written English and Italian. The RA will help manage the Lab, assisting with scientific research and administration.
The main purpose of this workshop is to familiarize participants with key Bayesian concepts in hypothesis testing. Concrete examples illustrate how to compute, report, and interpret Bayesian hypothesis tests for popular statistical models such as correlation, regression, t-test, ANOVA, and contingency tables.
Are you interested in developing and using statistical and mathematical methods to study psychological phenomena? The Psychological Methods group is seeking two PhD candidates, one for each of the following projects.
The Department of Cognitive Sciences at the University of Haifa, Israel, invites applications for an open-rank tenure-track position, beginning in October 2023. The academic rank will be matched to the candidate’s qualifications.

This year we are holding again a workshop on nonlinear methods.
The Basque Center on Cognition Brain and Language (San Sebastián, Basque Country, Spain) offers Research Professors & Research Associates research fellow positions in seven main broad areas of research.
Two PhD positions are open for applications at the University of Luxembourg, Cognitive Neuroscience Research unit (Head: Christine Schiltz), COSA institute. Both of them imply experimental work with EEG, both in adults and children.
We have an open PhD position (fully funded by the Swiss National Science Foundation for 4-years). Expected starting date: fall 2022. The goal of the project "Do the same cognitive systems support perception and memory? A healthy special populations perspective" is to further develop theories on the relationship between perceptual ability and memory performance.
The current position is part of the research project funded by the Swiss National Science Foundation entitled "The current challenge in attentional-control research: Establishing reliable and valid measures". The purpose of this 4-year project is to investigate attentional control (also referred as cognitive control, executive functions, or inhibition).
Join us for CogSci2022! Our 44th Annual Conference will be centered around the theme of diversity, with an accompanying range of keynotes and invited speakers who themselves highlight the diversity of our field. Our three symposia are Cognition across Diverse Populations, Cognition within Diverse Societies, and Global Challenges for Cognitive Science. The conference will be offered in a fully hybrid environment for onsite and online attendees.
he ECVP is a yearly European Conference in which researchers from all parts of the world convene. As its name implies, the conference centers around visual perception research and fields that connect to visual perception such as multisensory processing, attention, decision making, artificial intelligence, aesthetics etc. The overall goal of the meeting is to provide a forum for presentation and discussion of new developments in our understanding of human, animal and machine vision. Empirical, theoretical and applied perspectives are all encouraged.
A number of recent approaches lay the foundation for a consensus by offering formal accounts of mental effort. Yet, reaching a multifield-wide consensus on the operationalization of mental effort will require crosstalk between different empirical and computational approaches, including symbolic architectures, non-parametric Bayesian statistics, and neural networks.
The ABY Human Memory Lab is looking for talented PhD students to join us. The lab is interested in the transformation of naturalistic experience into discrete episodic memories. We investigate this process using unique naturalistic-yet-controlled stimuli developed in the lab (eg, using filming, VR and 'The Sims'), in combination with neuroimaging, behavioral and soon intracranial measurements.

Most areas of cognitive psychology have recognized the power of computational and mathematical models and have embraced their benefits to rigorous theorizing. One illustration of this trend is the growing popularity of Bayesian approaches to cognitive modelling. This powerful trend comes, however, at a cost: The complexity of models and modelling techniques renders it increasingly difficult for non-experts to acquire the necessary skills and then keep pace with developments.
