Overview

Contemporary research on cognitive and social cognition is focussed on humans’ abilities to understand others and to establish interpersonal relationships with them. Within this field intersubjectivity is investigated as a basic aspect of social cognition that allows to share experiences and to be attuned to others’ mental states in an immediate way. A large amount of work has been done on this topic in cognitive and developmental psychology, neuroscience, philosophy of mind. The workshop aims at bringing together theoretical and research contributions derived from cognitive science, neuroscience and social sciences with the aim to enhance integration and cross-fertilization between these areas.
