Subject: 6th CPLA Conference, The Netherlands: Call for Papers From: at <P.GroenenKNO.AZN.NL> Date: Wed, 12 Mar 1997 18:56:47 +0000********************************************************** ICPLA International Clinical Phonetics and Linguistics Association 6th Annual Conference Nijmegen, The Netherlands October 13 - 15, 1997 Second Announcement Call for Papers ********************************************************** INVITATION During its brief history (since 1991) the ICPLA has established a name via its scientific journal and the annual conferences, which serve as a platform to update and discuss theoretical developments and clinical issues. We are therefore pleased to invite you at the: 6th Annual Conference of the International Clinical Phonetics and Linguistics Association (ICPLA) which will take place in: Nijmegen, The Netherlands October 13 - 15, 1997. The topics of the conference are related to language, speech, and hearing disorders in both adults and children. This years' conference continues the ICPLA-tradition to call for theoretical, methodological and clinical papers in the field of linguistics and phonetics. In addition, to counteract a bias in the series of conferences until now, your attention is particularly asked for hearing loss --including its consequences-- and speech perception. We like to encourage participants to submit presentations on this topic. The programmed keynote addresses reflect the above policy, and add some couleur locale to the scope of topics. Nijmegen is psycholinguistically a big city in a small country. We will try our best to provide for proper conditions for a most stimulating and fruitful conference. Looking forward to meet you in October, The Organizing Committee ********************************************************** GENERAL INFORMATION Location: Collegezalen Complex, Zaal CC. 4 ; Mercatorpad 1, Nijmegen, The Netherlands Language: The official language of the conference will be English.
