Aim & Scope
HUMAN COGNITIVE PROCESSING aims to be a forum for
interdisciplinary research on the cognitive structure and processing
of language and its anchoring in the human cognitive or mental
systems in general. It aims to publish high quality manuscripts
which address problems related to the nature and organization of
the cognitive or mental systems and processes involved in speaking
and understanding natural language, and the relationship of these
systems and processes to other domains of human cognition,
including general conceptual or knowledge systems and processes
(the language and thought issue), and other perceptual or behavioral
systems such as vision and non-verbal behavior (e.g. gesture, sign
language). 'Cognition' and 'Mind' should be taken in their broadest
sense, not only including the domain of rationality, but also
dimensions such as emotion and the unconscious. The series is not
bound to any theoretical paradigm or discipline: it is open to any
type of approach to the above questions (methodologically and
theoretically) and to research from any discipline concerned with
them, including (but not restricted to) different branches of
psychology, artificial intelligence and computer science, cognitive
anthropology, linguistics, philosophy and neuroscience. HUMAN
COGNITIVE PROCESSING especially welcomes research which
makes an explicit attempt to cross the boundaries of these
disciplines.

Abstracts are invited for the Fifth International Conference on
Theoretical Issues in Sign Language Research to be held in Montreal
June 18-20, 1996. The conference is co-sponsored by McGill
University and Universite du Quebec a Montreal (UQAM); all meetings
will take place at UQAM. Submissions are invited on any aspect of
research and theory about sign language including, for example,
linguistic structure, language acquisition, bilingualism,
psycholinguistic and neuropsychological processing, gesture/sign
relations, language evolution and contact, the social context of sign,
and research methodology (including transcription and coding
systems, and computer-based data management and networking).
Presentations may be made in any of the four official languages of
the conference: ASL, LSQ, French and English. Abstracts may be
submitted in French or English.
Presentation modes will be research symposia, plenary session papers,
posters, and
special interest workshops. (Preference will be given to symposia
and poster submissions.)
=====> Research symposia will be 2 hours and consist of 3 or 4 research
papers on a given topic followed by a discussion paper and general
discussion. Organizers of symposia should submit a 150-word abstract
summarizing the topic and goals of the symposium along with a 250-word
abstract for each research paper.
=====> Plenary session papers will be 20 minutes with 10 minutes for
discussion and poster sessions will be 2 hours. Paper and poster authors
should submit a 250-word abstract.
=====> Workshop sessions will be 90 minutes and geared toward a special
