The 55th annual meeting of the Society for Computation in Psychology (SCiP) is pleased to announce its call for abstracts. The meeting will be held on Thursday, November 20, 2025, before the opening of the annual meeting of the Psychonomic Society. We invite you to submit your abstract by August 31, 2025. We will be holding this event in person in Denver in tandem with the Psychonomic Society Meeting.
The theme for this year’s conference is Computation Everywhere: Studying Cognition in Environments of Technological Ubiquity. In a time where computers and AI proliferate all aspects of our lives, how do we harness the rapidly evolving power of computation to study cognition? We encourage our members to share this call with others who are doing related work but who may not be regular SCiP attendees. To submit an abstract or symposium proposal, please follow the instructions on our online submission form or linked on our website. Please consider forwarding our conference call to folks around your department (especially if they have been unable to attend SCiP in the past). We hope to see you there!
