Meeting Description:

The CLARe 4 conference in Helsinki 2019 follows the conferences in University
of Louvain in 2014 and 2015 and FU Berlin in 2017. The aim of the conference
is to gather researchers together who are interested in the study of language
and aging research. The conference aims to provide an arena for empirical
approaches and innovative methods to gather language data from older adults.
We want to stimulate contributions that help to better identify the position
of language and aging research in the broader context of linguistics and
sociolinguistics. Interdisciplinary perspectives are especially welcome.

With the themes “Interaction, Methods, and Positions”, we invite presentations
from a range of subfields in the area of language and aging. The thematic
session of interaction focuses on interaction involving older adults.
Recently, there has been an increasing interest in situational settings
involving persons with dementia, focusing on how these persons and their
conversational partners collaborate to construct meaning in interaction,
despite the resulting communication challenges. In the field of methods, we
want to provide an arena for empirical approaches and innovative methods to
gather language data from older adults. Because research on aging is still
under-represented in the field of linguistics, there is a strong need for a
discussion on various methodological points of departure. The session of
positions is dedicated to papers that outline what can be learned from
language and aging research in other disciplines such as, e.g. language
change, and vice versa: paradigms and experiences that could shed new light on
language related issues of aging.


Call for Papers:

We invite proposals for oral presentations and posters. Abstracts should be
anonymous and have maximum 500 words (not including references) and must
specify how the paper contributes to the themes of the conference. The
abstracts should include the main arguments of the paper, some details about
the data and methods, and preliminary results or implications of the findings.

Proposals and abstracts should be sent by e-mail to contact at clare-corpora.org,
before 30 June 2018. Please write “CLARe 4 abstract” as the subject of the
email and please name the attachment as follows: “clare4_short
title_paper/poster_rtf”. Make sure to include the following information in the
mail: author’s name, affiliation, and postal address; title of the
contribution; 3 to 5 keywords; type of presentation (oral paper, poster). 
Abstracts will undergo a double-blind peer review process.
