SUMMARY:BEC Speaker Series: Lera Boroditsky "How the Languages We Speak Shape the Ways We Think"
DESCRIPTION:Lera Boroditsky USCD\, Department of Cognitive Science “How the Languages We Speak Shape the Ways We Think” “How do the languages we speak shape the ways we think? Do speakers of different languages think differently? Does learning new languages change the way you think? Do bilinguals think differently when speaking different languages? Does language shape our thinking only when we’re speaking or does it shape our attentional and cognitive patterns more broadly? In this talk\, I will describe several lines of research looking at cross-linguistic differences in thought.” 12:00-1:30 PM Monday May 4th\, 2015Haines Hall 352Lunch will be served on a first come\, first serve basis; we request a $6 donation.

SUMMARY:BEC Speaker Series: Laurie Santos "The Evolution of Irrationality: Insights from Non-Human Primates"
DESCRIPTION:Laurie SantosYale\, Department of Psychology “The Evolution of Irrationality: Insights from Non-Human Primates.”“I will explore the evolutionary roots of some of our species’ irrational decisions. I will start by reviewing some classic biases in the field of judgment and decision-making and will then turn to the question of how these biases came about in the first place by exploring some recent experiments in exploring similar biases in monkeys. I will then discuss new work suggesting ways that the human species is uniquely irrational.”12:00-1:30 PM Monday May 11th\, 2015Haines Hall 352Lunch will be served on a first come\, first serve basis; we request a $6 donation.

SUMMARY:BEC Speaker Series: Jacob Foster "The Unknown Known: Science\, Social Learning\, and Cultural Evolution"
DESCRIPTION:Jacob FosterUCLA\, Department of Sociology  “The Unknown Known: Science\, Social Learning\, and Cultural Evolution” “Science is an incredibly successful instance of social learning. Its practices produce and subtly organize the attention\, effort\, and creativity of millions of scientists\, leading to rapid and cumulative cultural evolution. In this talk\, I outline the striking convergence between this view of science and the one developed in science studies. Using data from millions of scientific papers\, I illustrate how scientists use social cues to select research problems and how these heuristics lead to more (and less) efficient discovery. I then argue that formal theories of learning and cultural evolution shine new light on old puzzles in the sociology of science–while the study of science provides provocative problems\, parallels\, and paradigms for theories of cultural evolution.”  12:00-1:30 PM Monday May 18th\, 2015Haines Hall 352Lunch will be served on a first come\, first serve basis; we request a $6 donation.
