Meeting Description:

The 23rd Seoul International Conference on Generative Grammar (SICOGG 23) will
take place from August 11 through Friday, August 13, 2021. The conference will
be hosted by the Korean Generative Grammar Circle. SICOGG 23 will consist of a
general session, a special session and a series of lectures by the keynote
speaker. The main theme of the general session is ‘Comparative Approaches to
the Syntax-Semantics Interface’. The confirmed invited speakers are as
follows:

Keynote speaker:
Professor Gillian Ramchand (University of Tromsø)

Invited speakers:
Professor Kyle Rawlins (Johns Hopkins University)
Professor Amy Rose Deal (UC Berkeley)
Professor Michelle Yuan (UC San Diego)

Special Session Speaker:
Professor Lisa Matthewson (University of British Columbia)

Call for Papers: 

General Session:
Equal consideration will be given to papers from all areas of generative
grammar, which may include syntactic theory, the syntax-semantics interface,
the syntax-morphology interface, the syntax-phonology interface, syntactic
acquisition, and any other syntax-related interests. Applicants for
oral/poster presentations in the general session must submit their abstracts
by June 10, 2021.

Special Session:
The special session will feature an invited talk by Professor Lisa Matthewson
(University of British Columbia). Generative linguistics has long relied on
introspection in the collection of linguistic data. While introspection has
given rise to robust generalizations (Sprouse et al. 2013; Sprouse and Almeida
2017), the role of context in judgement acceptability tasks has been shown to
be an important factor in the elicitation of semantic judgements (Matthewson
2004; Tonhauser and Matthewson 2016; Bochnak and Matthewson 2020). Conflicting
judgements can arise when two people have differing contexts in mind,
highlighting the need to control for context during data collection. To this
end, we invite submissions that tackle the following questions in methodology.
We also invite submissions that have implemented this kind of methodology.
- How do we present a context to a speaker when eliciting judgements?
 - How can this methodology be implemented when the linguist does research on
their own language?
- How can we control for context in large-scale experimental tasks, where
speakers may have a long list of sentences (and control sentences) to
evaluate?
- How can we best report our methodology in our research to enable faithful
replication of our work?
- Is it best to work with speakers one-on-one or in a large group? Are certain
tasks better suited to one or the other?
- How can we adapt picture tasks to our own research (Bruening 2009;
Matthewson and Burton 2015)?
