Women in Cognitive Science: International Collaboration, Scientific Advancement, Workplace Culture

认知科学中的妇女的目标是提高妇女在该领域的能见度，并创造一种环境，促使所有科学家，特别是妇女，在创造和维持成功的职业生涯的轨道上，就可能需要谈判的问题进行讨论。有几个研讨会是为认知科学领域的女性，特别是处于学术生涯早期的女性设计的。这些研讨会的重点是发展国际合作，谈判科学进步的挑战，并成功地驾驭工作场所文化。研讨会将在心理学会、认知科学学会和心理科学协会的会议上举行。讲习班将采取公开论坛的形式，邀请发言者和小组成员就在个人和机构一级提高妇女在认知科学领域的专业地位的最佳做法展开讨论。这些研讨会将进行现场直播，以增加曝光率，并将为年轻教师提供个性化帮助的“快速辅导”。通过与上述老牌学会合作，研讨会将最大限度地扩大对认知科学高级学术职位代表性仍然不足的群体的外联潜力。这一奖项反映了NSF的法定使命，并通过使用基金会的智力优势和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估，被认为值得支持。

The goal of Women in Cognitive Science is to improve the visibility of women in the field and to create an environment that would invite discussion of the issues that all scientists, but women in particular, may be required to negotiate in the trajectory of creating and sustaining a successful career. Several workshops are designed for women in cognitive science, especially women in the early stages of their academic career. The workshops focus on developing international collaborations, negotiating challenges to scientific advancement, and successfully navigating the workplace culture. Workshops will take place at meetings of the Psychonomic Society, the Cognitive Science Society, and the Association for Psychological Sciences. The workshops will take the form of public forums with invited speaker-panelists to initiate discussion about best practices for the professional advancement of women in cognitive science at the individual and institutional level. These workshops will be live-streamed to increase exposure, and will also feature "speed-mentoring" for personalized assistance to young faculty. By partnering with the above-mentioned established societies, the workshops will maximize the outreach potential to a group that continues to be underrepresented in senior academic positions in the cognitive sciences.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.
