*** CALL FOR PAPERS ***
FIFTH ANNUAL PRE-PSYCHONOMICS
WORKSHOP ON OBJECT PERCEPTION AND MEMORY
OPAM-97
Thursday, November 20, 1997
Philadelphia, PA, USA
The workshop on Object Perception and Memory (OPAM) is an opportunity
for researchers in visual perception and memory to present their most
recent work. As is its tradition, the 1997 meeting of OPAM will take
place the day before the Psychonomic Society Meeting in Philadelphia
(Thursday, November 20). This notice is to encourage you to attend and
to consider presenting your research on object/scene perception,
recognition, and memory. Selection of papers will be according to the
following guidelines:
1. To ensure that we hear as many ideas as possible, greater priority
will be given to those who did not present last year.
2. Graduate students will be given priority over post-docs, who will in
turn be given priority over professors (since the latter two groups
should be able to present at Psychonomics).
3. In the event that we have more submissions than available time slots,
it may also become necessary to review submitted presentations. If so,
submissions will be rated in terms of appropriateness to the topic of
the meeting, general interest, and quality.
Please send submissions to Pepper Williams or Dan Simons (addresses
below) by Friday, August 1, 1997, either by electronic mail (preferred)
or regular mail (late submissions will also be considered, but be given
lower priority). All talks will be 20 minutes long, with an additional
5 minutes for discussion. We will arrange to have an overhead projector
and a slide projector available for the presentations. If necessary and
monetarily feasible, we may be able to provide a TV/VCR; please let us
know as soon as possible if you would like to make a presentation that
requires a dynamic display.
In order to pay for the conference room, it will be necessary to collect
a registration fee ($25 for faculty, $15 for grad students and
post-docs) from all attendees. You may send the registration fee with
your submission or pay at the door. Please make checks out to Pepper
Williams.
Please circulate this information as widely as possible. Thanks for
your support, and we hope to see you at OPAM-97.
Pepper Williams and Daniel J. Simons
