SUMMARY:Workshop "Philosophical and\nPsychological
  Perspectives on Number", Brussel
DTSTART;VALUE=DATE:20060511

LOCATION:Brussel
DESCRIPTION:The aim of this workshop is to bring t
 ogether psychologists and philosophers who are stu
 dying the epistemological and ontological foundati
 ons of number.Key topics are: what are numbers? Ho
 w do we acquire knowledge about them? What is the 
 role of language and other cultural factors in acq
 uiring numerical concepts? What neural correlates 
 underlie numerical competence? What are the implic
 ations of psychological foundations of number for 
 the philosophy of mathematics? We expect that brin
 ging together philosophers and psychologists will 
 foster a unique cross-fertilization for both field
 s. As the workshop will have an in-depth, focused 
 character, we have invited eminent scholars in psy
 chology and philosophy whose work has deepened the
  understanding of the nature and knowledge of numb
 er.   For more details, including full programme,
