65th Annual Meeting of the Psychonomic Society in New York
From 21 to 24 November 2024, a group of ten colleagues from the Departments of Cognitive and Experimental Psychology as well as Biological and Social Psychology took part in the renowned 65th Annual Meeting of the Psychonomic Society in New York City. The meeting is the world’s most important gathering for cognitive psychologists and brings together researchers from over 40 countries – from experienced experts to young scientists who are already making remarkable contributions to science.
The varied programme offered keynotes, symposia, workshops, poster presentations and numerous opportunities for exchange. With over 1,650 contributions and a total of 2,700 participants, a broad spectrum of current research was presented.
Our colleagues used the conference not only to discuss the latest trends and challenges in cognitive psychology and to intensify international collaborations, but also to present their own research findings.

UROP International 2024 has come to an end
After ten weeks of research at the IFP1, the UROP International 2024 program has come to an end for our international students. Big congratulations to Cindy from the University of British Columbia for her work on „What happens when typing is interrupted? A study of double consonant German words,“ supervised by Patricia Hirsch. Also, a shoutout to Tharuni from the University of Alberta and Chong from the University of Southern California, who worked with Tanja Roembke, Matilde Simonetti, and Rachel Brown on the projects „The ‚Bilingual Advantage‘ in Word Learning: a Meta-Analysis“ and „Production Effect In Speakers With L1 Mandarin and L2 English.“ We hope you all had a great time here in Aachen and look forward to crossing paths again!
Das Projekt BIM4People im OecherLab
Letzte Woche stellte das Lehr- und Forschungsgebiet Arbeits- und Ingenieurpsychologie in Kooperation mit dem ICoM der RWTH Aachen University das Projekt BIM4People im OecherLab in Aachen vor. Die Veranstaltung bot einen Einblick in die Fokusgruppen mit Bürger:innen sowie in die Bedarfsanalyse zu digitalen Beteiligungsplattformen. In einer anschließenden Podiumsdiskussion wurden die Herausforderungen und Chancen digitaler Bürgerbeteiligung mit zwei Projektpartnern und der Stadt Aachen diskutiert.
Im Projekt BIM4People arbeiten Jennifer Klütsch und Luise Haehn vom Lehr- und Forschungsgebiet Arbeits- und Ingenieurpsychologie (Prof. Dr. Sabine Schlittmeier) sowie Patricia Hirsch und Sandra Hensen vom Lehrstuhl für Kognitions- und Experimentalpsychologie (Prof. Dr. Iring Koch) gemeinsam in einem interdisziplinären Konsortium. Ihr Ziel ist es, eine digitale Beteiligungsplattform für die Öffentlichkeit zu gestalten, um die Akzeptanz für Baumaßnahmen im Sinne der Mobilität 4.0 zu stärken. Dadurch soll der Umstieg auf öffentliche Verkehrsmittel durch gemeinschaftliche Mitgestaltung und Berücksichtigung der Öffentlichkeitsinteressen attraktiver gemacht werden.

ADok 2023
Matilde Simonetti, Luigi Falanga, and Anton Koger from the Chair of Cognitive and Experimental Psychology had a great experience at the PhD-ADok conference in Greifswald from June 21st to 24th.
The conference had a cozy vibe with fewer than 20 attendees. This created a warm and intimate atmosphere where we could connect with everyone and have meaningful discussions. The conference venue was absolutely unique (see picture below).
The talks by Matilde and Anton were very successful. It was Luigi’s first-ever conference experience, and he engaged in academic and social exchange.
