The 2009 session "Cem09" is under the theme "Percept – Concept – Decision: application to learning activities". This theme reflects the ambition of Cem09 to update the cognitivist paradigm STR (Stimulus - Treatment - Response) with a motivational and emotional anchoring, and a focus on the various learning activities and contexts.

Indeed, we want to review the three main stages of cognition – percept formation, concept construction, and decision-making – by showing their emotional and motivational modulation in a wide range of professional, school and university learning and training (which can be identified by area, skills / process or content).

The goal of this conference is to bring together researchers from different academic backgrounds and disciplines around an approach which integrates cognition, emotion and motivation. The conference encourages works that defend this approach, showing the relationship between cognition and non-cognitive factors in different contexts.

Abstracts and papers should not be published or submitted for publication elsewhere.
