SweCog 2022 in Örebro

The 17^th SweCog conference of the Swedish Cognitive Science Society will be held in Örebro. The conference is free for all members and will take place between Thursday June 16th and Friday June 17th.

SweCog 2022 is held jointly with 8th International Workshop on Artificial Intelligence and Cognition (AIC) and some sessions will be shared between the two conferences. The SweCog conference still welcome contributions within the broad spectrum of cognitive science, not necessarily liked to AI.

Call for Participation

SweCog invites both oral and poster presentations, covering all areas of cognitive science. We welcome presentations of on-going work as well as recently finished studies. If you would like to present, please submit a presentation abstract or a short paper, following the specification stated below. Desired presentation form (oral or poster) can be indicated when submitting.

Abstract submission

Submitted abstracts should be up to 200 words as plain text along with the conference registration. All accepted abstracts are included in the SweCog conference proceedings, which are published online.

Short paper submission

Submitted short paper manuscripts should be written using the provided formatting template, covering 1 to 3 pages including images and references. Manuscripts are submitted in PDF format.

Submitted short papers will undergo single blinded review primarily focused on providing constructive feedback to the author. Accepted contributions will be included in the SweCog conference proceedings.

Presentation

Oral presentation
Participants accepted for oral presentation are asked to prepare a 15 minute presentation, preferably using PowerPoint or similar visual support. An additional 5 minutes is reserved for questions. If the number of submitted oral presentations exceeds the number of slots, priority will be given to short papers, while considering scientific quality, topical spread, and speaker diversity.

Poster presentation
Participants accepted for poster presentation are asked to prepare a poster that you print and bring to the conference. Details on poster size will be provided closer to the conference.
