PsyLinCS-UTM 2019: Building Synergies between Psychology, Language Studies, and Computer Science
Location: University of Toronto Mississauga
Date: Saturday, September 7, 2019
The aim of this workshop is to showcase existing work and promote new collaborations in research at the intersection of the fields of Psychology, Linguistics, and Computer Science. Along with keynote talks, the workshop will include oral and poster presentations by workshop attendees.
Submission Guidelines
All papers must be original and not simultaneously submitted to another journal or conference. We invite abstracts on any work at the intersection of Psychology, Linguistics, and/or Computer Science. Work in any of these individual domains that could be augmented by interdisciplinary follow-up work is also encouraged, as one of the purposes of the workshop is to encourage cross-disciplinary discussion and collaboration.
Abstract requirements:
- one page of content; references may be included on a second page

- .pdf format
During the submission process, authors will be asked to indicate:
- author name(s), affiliation(s), and status(es)
- preference for oral presentation, poster presentation, or either
- which of the conference's fields (psychology, linguistics, computer science) the submission relates to

Funding
Funded by the Graduate Expansion Fund at UTM, the workshop is particularly focused on providing graduate students an opportunity to present their research to an interdisciplinary audience across the GTA. To encourage student participation, the workshop will include awards for student presentations, and dissemination funds have been earmarked for student workshop participants; these can be used to further their work on their projects (e.g. support for external conference presentations, publication fees, or research costs). Attendance will be free for all attendees. More information about awards and funding is available on the workshop website.
