Dear colleagues,

On behalf of the organizers, Lucas Battich (Ecole Normale Supérieure),
Francesca Righetti (RUB), and myself (Sofiia Rappe, RUB), I would like
to announce a call for papers for the upcoming hybrid workshop “Sense of
Reality: Reality Monitoring in Perception and Cognition.”

Workshop Dates: 26-27 September 2024
Location: Institut Jean-Nicod, Paris (and online)
Website: https://sites.google.com/view/sense-reality-workshop-2024

There is more to perception than mere sensory contents: we typically
have the feeling that what we perceive is real and not, for example,
merely imagined. We have a sense of reality. This sense is often taken
for granted, but what makes an experience feel real? How do we
distinguish between reality, imagination, and hallucination?

This workshop aims to bring together early-career and senior researchers
from across disciplines whose work contributes in any way to the
understanding of the sense of reality in perception, memory,
imagination, and cognition more broadly.

We welcome submissions from philosophy (including phenomenology),
cognitive sciences, and related fields. Possible topics include but are
not limited to:

• Reality monitoring in perception and memory
• Sense of reality and its subjective markers
• The feeling of perceptual presence
• Differences between perception, imagination, episodic remembering, and
hallucinations
• Mental imagery, especially as it relates to differentiating between
perception and imagination
• Hallucinations, delusions, and derealization in psychiatric disorders
• Sense of reality in virtual and augmented reality
• Epistemology of perception and imagination
• Consciousness as it relates to reality monitoring

Confirmed keynote speakers (in person):
• Ophelia Deroy (LMU Munich)
• Nadine Dijkstra (University College London)
• Jérôme Dokic (Institut Jean-Nicod, EHESS, ENS-PSL)
• Christoph Hoerl (University of Warwick)
• Denis Perrin (Université Grenoble Alpes)

If you would like to present your work at the workshop (30 minutes,
including Q&A), please submit your abstract of 300 words (excluding
references) by August 1st using this link:

https://forms.gle/i1Rkkqmw3d5qUXJv5

We will reach out to let you know if your application was successful by
August 15th.

Unfortunately, due to limited funding, we cannot cover travel or
accommodation costs for the submitted contributions. Please keep that in
mind when deciding whether you would like to present your paper remotely
or in person. The preferred way of participating will not be a factor in
evaluating the abstracts.

Attendance is free, but we highly recommend registration (especially for
in-person participation) as seats are limited.

To register, please send an email indicating your name, career stage,
preferred manner of participation (online or in person), and
institutional affiliation to the workshop email address by September
1st:

Senseofreal...@gmail.com

You can use the same address for any other inquiries regarding the
event.

We are looking forward to seeing you in Paris!

Sofiia Rappe
(also on behalf of Lucas Battich and Francesca Righetti)
