Content

It is high time for an Intrapersonal Processes / Social Cognition track meeting. There will be plenty of time for PhD candidates to present their own research or research ideas and both receive and provide feedback. The exact format of a presentation and the type of feedback is up to the presenter’s needs (e.g., situating one’s research in the larger field, presenting a research idea, presenting a line of recent research, etc.). We also recommend discussing the joys and tribulations of doing this type of research, sharing of resources, or general sharing of ideas and tips and tricks.

If you would like to seize this opportunity, send us an e-mail with a very brief outline of your talk’s topic to r.hortensius@uu.nl and c.a.harris@uu.nl.

We would also like to take some time to discuss with all participants how we want to shape the track in the upcoming years based on everyone’s needs and interests.

Learning goals

Upon completion of this workshop, participants will be able to identify a variety of social-cognitive methods to understand complex social phenomena, to understand their purpose for existing research programs, and to incorporate these methods within their own research programs.

 

If there are more PhDs interested in participating than available places, distribution will be based on juniority for this course. This means that we will consider who became a KLI member more recently.
