TENNET XVI Call for Papers

[Brian MacWhinney]

CALL FOR ABSTRACTS
  THEORETICAL AND EXPERIMENTAL NEUROPSYCHOLOGY
  (TENNET XVI)
  Montréal, Canada, June 23-25, 2005
   
------------------------------------------------------------------------ 
-------
  The 16th Annual conference on Theoretical and Experimental  
Neuropsychology,
  TENNET XVI, will be held in June 2005 in Montréal, Québec, Canada at
  Université du Québec, Montréal. This year marks the 16th anniversary of
  TENNET. It also marks a passing of the baton from Henri Cohen and Peter
  Snyder to Barbara Bulman-Fleming, Mike Dixon, and their colleagues at  
the
  University of Waterloo. The conference will still be held in Montréal  
at the
  usual time in June (we don't wish to mess with success). We wish to  
thank
  Henri Cohen, Sid Segalowitz, Pete Snyder, Harry Whitaker and the staff  
and
  students at UQAM for their dedication and hard work in making TENNET  
the
  favourite conference for many of us.

  The basic conference structure will be identical: (a) two invited  
thematic
  symposia of 3 hours each day, followed by (b) refereed poster papers.  
The
  poster papers are discussed after the second symposium, each  
afternoon. The
  two-hour period for lunch allows ample time for strolling around to  
find one
  of the many charming restaurants in the area.

  The procedure for TENNET submissions is slightly different this year.  
There
  are now two streams: ABSTRACT submissions (to TENNET) and MANUSCRIPT
  submissions (to Brain and Cognition, not to TENNET - see below).

  ABSTRACT SUBMISSION
  Abstracts (maximum 250 words) can be submitted to the TENNET committee  
for
  review. Abstracts that are accepted will enable the authors to present  
a
  poster during TENNET. The 250-word abstracts will be printed in a  
separate
  issue of Brain and Cognition devoted to conference proceedings. At  
least one
  of the authors must be present to discuss the poster at the conference  
in
  order for the abstract to be published.

  The deadline for ABSTRACT submissions, via e-mail only  
(tennet at uwaterloo.ca ),
  is January 17th, 2005. Note the new email address in your address  
books,
  please.


  MANUSCRIPT SUBMISSION
  In addition to submitting the abstracts, we encourage authors to  
continue to
  submit longer MANUSCRIPTS on the same topic (either brief papers or  
longer
  papers). But as of this year all manuscripts (short or long) will  
undergo the
  same peer review, editorial, and technical editing (i.e., galley  
proofs, etc.)
  process as any formal submission to Brain and Cognition. Thus if you  
wish to
  prepare a "short paper" or a "long paper" based on your poster, by all  
means
  do so. These should be submitted directly to the Journal (i.e. NOT to  
the
  TENNET email address). Accepted papers will appear in the main body of  
Brain
  and Cognition, rather than in the issue devoted to the conference
  proceedings. The website for Brain and Cognition is  
http://www.ees.elsevier/brcg
  Please follow the links to the "Guide for Authors" for submission  
details.
  Please submit online: see instructions at that website for 'Online  
submission'.


  IMPORTANT:
  Information for ABSTRACTS
  All submissions should deal with a well-defined topic or problem in  
any domain
  of experimental, clinical or theoretical neuropsychology, including
  neurolinguistics, development, and history. The title of the  
presentation, the
  full name(s) of author(s) (and complete mailing address, with  
institutional
  affiliation, if any, telephone number and e-mail) and acknowledgments  
should
  appear with the abstract. This information is needed to properly  
prepare the
  program if your abstract is accepted.

  As mentioned above, one type of submission will be considered: An  
abstract of
  250 words or fewer, for publication as part of the conference  
proceedings, and
  to serve as an archival record of a poster presentation. If a  
submission is
  accepted, then one of the authors must attend the conference to  
present the
  poster in order for the abstract to be published in the Journal.

  Your abstract should arrive by the January 17th deadline at the  
following
  email address: tennet at uwaterloo.ca . IMPORTANT: Please check your  
submission
  with an updated general-purpose antivirus application before sending  
it by e-
  mail. Attached files should be in PDF, MS Word or RTF.
  Manuscript submissions should be sent to: Brain and Cognition - see the
  following website:
http://authors.elsevier.com/JournalDetail.html?PubID=622798&Precis=DESC
