Announcement and Call for Papers
The 32nd European Mathematical Psychology Group
Meeting will be held at the Faculdade de Psicologia e de Ciências
da Educação, Universidade de Lisboa (FPCE-UL), Lisbon, Portugal,
and is organized jointly by the Laboratório de Estatística
e Análise de Dados (LEAD/FPCE-UL) and the Associação
Portuguesa de Classificação e Análise de Dados (CLAD).
Objective of the Meeting
Mathematical Psychology concerns the development
of quantitative models and theories, and testing them against empirical
data.
Mathematical Psychology draws upon mathematical and statistical
methods, computer simulation, and formal logic to develop theories e.g.
perception and sensation, psychophysics, memory and learning, decision
making, problem solving and thinking, motor behaviour, emotion and motivation,
and social behaviour.
The first EMPG meeting was held in Paris in 1971.
The preceding EMPG meetings were organized in Padova (1996), Nijmgen (1997),
Keele (1998), Mannheim (1999) and in Graz (2000). Following the success
of these meetings, it was decided in Graz to organize the 32nd European
Mathematical Psychology Group Meeting in Lisbon, Portugal.
The Meeting includes four types of presentations:
