Call For Abstracts
University of Southern California Speech Production Conference
November 18, 1999
The University of Southern California is hosting a conference on all
aspects of human speech production. There will be morning and
afternoon spoken sessions and a lunchtime poster session.
Presentations will be selected on the basis of anonymous review of
abstracts. The deadline for receipt of abstracts is August 1, 1999.
This one-day conference is scheduled to coincide with the Meeting of
the Psychonomic Society, to be held in Los Angeles. The Psychonomics
meeting starts with a poster session on the evening of November
18. Because many attendees of the Production conference will also be
presenting at Psychonomics, we want to stress that Production
Conference submissions should not simply be slight variants on papers
to be presented at Psychonomics.
The University of Southern California is located about 8 miles from
the Century City area of Los Angeles, the site of the Psychonomics
meeting. Information about transportation to USC, Conference
Registration, and other details will be posted later in the summer on
the conference website, http://siva.usc.edu/prodconf/
CALL FOR ABSTRACTS
Abstracts are due August 1, 1999
Abstracts for spoken paper and poster presentations are welcome in all
areas of human speech production. Several people have asked about
submissions in slightly nontraditional production topics,
e.g. production errors in patient populations, computer speech
generation, etc. Our answer is that research with all kinds of
measures, populations, etc. is welcome so long as the research has
clear implications for current models of normal human speech
production (and not just, say, aphasiology).
Abstract Reviewing. Abstracts will be reviewed anonymously.
Notification of acceptance will be given by September 1.
The reviewing panel will be posted on the conference website.
Abstract Format. Abstracts should be no more than 400 words long,
excluding references. Abstracts that are over the word limit will not
be reviewed. Abstracts will be accepted by email only, in plain ASCII
text format only. Email abstracts to prodconf at gizmo.usc.edu. Please
use "Abstract Submission" as the subject of the message. You'll
receive an automatic reply that will serve as notice of receipt of
your abstract.
Your abstract should be formatted as follows:
1. Author name(s), affiliation(s), and email address(es)
2. Indicate whether submission is to be considered for a spoken
paper, poster, or either. All submissions that are rejected for
papers will be considered for posters unless explicitly instructed
otherwise.
3. Paste in the abstracts of all Psychnomics talks/posters on which
abstract authors are also authors/presenters. Indicate which author
will be presenting Psychonomics presentations, and the relationship
between current abstract and Psychonomics presentations, if relevant.
4. Leave several blank lines to allow the material in (1-3) to be
easily removed for anonymous review.
5. Title, body, and references of abstract, no more than 400 words,
excluding references.
Questions may be directed to prodconf at gizmo.usc.edu

SWAP is supported by the Max-Planck-Gesellschaft zur Foerderung
der Wissenschaften, and is a European Speech Communication
Association (ESCA) Tutorial and Research Workshop
- -----------------------------------------------------------------
The SWAP workshop will focus on the process by which the speech signal
is mapped onto the mental lexicon during spoken word recognition.
Central themes will be the nature of prelexical representations, the
nature of lexical representations, the mapping of the speech signal
onto the lexicon, the process of phonemic decision-making, and whether
there is feedback from lexical to prelexical levels of processing.
The workshop will consist of talks by invited speakers and poster
presentations. The invited speakers are:
Ellen Bard Paul Luce Janet Pierrehumbert
Cynthia Connine William Marslen-Wilson Mark Pitt
Alain Content Dominic Massaro Peter Roach
Jeff Elman Joanne Miller Arthur Samuel

submit one copy, by mail or e-mail (plain ASCII text only), by 26th
November 1999. Paper or electronic submissions received after 26th
November will not be considered. Each abstract should have a title,
