SUMMARY:Memory Distortions across the Lifespan: Theoretical and Empirical Issues
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a workshop on aging and memory\, organized by Sara Aronowitz (University of Toronto) and Jay Richardson (Université Grenoble-Alpes). \nThe study of memory distortions and confabulation has been a central driver of progress in understanding the functioning of human memory. The prevalence and etiology of these errors seem to have a characteristic developmental trajectory along with somewhat predictable breakdown patterns in ageing. How does the study of mnemic error across the lifespan inform the prevalent taxonomies of memory systems? Might it lead to insights into the nature of successful remembering? What might be the theoretical consequences\, if any\, of comparing the development and decline of accuracy and precision in memory? When it comes to philosophical theorizing\, the function of memory is usually studied in abstraction from differences across the lifespan. But age-related differences in memory raise important questions about what a success or failure of memory means. The purpose of this workshop is to bring together researchers from empirical and theoretical fields to start to ask these questions.   \nSpeakers\n\nDonna Rose Addis (Toronto)\nBailey Agard (Toronto)\nSara Aronowitz (Toronto)\nBryan Hong (Toronto)\nJohannes Mahr (York)\nRyan Panela (Toronto)\nDenis Perrin (Grenoble-Alpes)\nJay Richardson (Grenoble-Alpes)\n\n\nSchedule\n9:20-9:30 AM \nWelcome \n9:30-10:30 AM \nDonna Rose Addis \n10:30-11:00 AM \nRyan Panela \n11:00-11:30 AM \nCoffee break \n11:30 AM-12:30 PM \nDenis Perrin \n12:30-1:30 PM \nLunch (catered) \n1:30-2:30 PM \nJohannes Mahr \n2:30-3:00 PM \nBailey Agard \n3:00-3:30 PM \nJay Richardson \n3:30-4:00 PM \nCoffee Break \n4:00-4:30 PM \nBryan Hong \n4:30-5:30 PM \nSara Aronowitz
