Our bi-annual Joint Action Meeting (JAM) brings together cognitive scientists and researchers from related disciplines studying individuals’ ability to act together.
9th Joint Action Meeting (JAM 9)
Budapest, Hungary, July 10-12, 2023
JAM is back! Having skipped the meeting in 2021 due to the pandemic, it is our great pleasure to now finally invite you to attend the 9th bi-annual Joint Action Meeting (JAM) in Budapest next summer (July 10-12 2023). As always, JAM aims to bring together cognitive scientists and researchers from related disciplines studying individuals’ ability to act together. Human life is full of joint actions, ranging from a handshake to the performance of a symphony. We are highly skilled at coordinating our actions with those of others to reach common goals, and we rely on this ability throughout our daily lives. What are the cognitive and neural processes underlying this ability? How does joint action develop? How do language and gesture support and emerge from joint action? What are the basic principles needed to build robotic systems that can interact with humans? What differentiates joint action from individual action, both conceptually and in terms of experience? The scientific program will comprise oral presentations and posters addressing these and related questions.
