Wednesday, December 18, 2019
LOCATION: ICIS Conference – hotel conference room to be determined

The workshop will be held in the afternoon on December 18 from 1-5 pm at the ICIS Conference hotel.

COST: TBD by September 1, 2019

Submission Deadline: October 15, 2019

The organizing committee for the SIG Cognitive Research Workshop invites research papers for its Fifteenth Annual meeting to be held following ICIS 2019. In addressing IS research questions, these papers are expected to use theories and methods from the cognitive and psychological sciences.

The future of the Information System discipline is bound to involve human cognition as more and more systems are being used to meet our social needs. Human cognition deals with how we know things, through processes such as reasoning, perception, and judgment. SIG Cognitive Research is intended to represent and support researchers in information systems who view understanding human cognition as a critical component to the successful design and implementation of information systems. As such, the questions of interest that are relevant to this SIG group focus on IS problems in terms of the process of knowing. There is a wide range of diverse topics from which these questions can come. These include, but are not limited to, the ones listed below.

* Situated, shared, social, distributed, and team cognition
* Cognitive aspects of learning and innovation
* Creativity and creative cognition
* Cognition in wearable technology and exoskeletons
* Cognitive perspectives on human or computer-mediated knowledge-sharing
* Cognitive perspectives on decision processes
* Cognitive perspectives on knowledge management
* Cognitive perspectives on the design or use of information systems
* Cognitive processes of programmers/systems developers
* Cognition in Virtual Worlds
* Cognition in worlds of augmented reality
* Group and individual cognition in collaborative work
* Research methods to investigate cognitive issues in IS
* Design of user learning and training interventions
* Group and individual decision support systems
* Group and individual problem-finding, problem-solving
* Human factors in information environments
* Human-computer interaction or human factors perspectives involving cognition or perception

TRACKS:
Full papers: Papers should be limited to 10,000 words, including tables, figures, and references. Authors must also include an abstract not exceeding 300 words. Papers are to be submitted electronically to eyetgin at rider.edu <mailto:eyetgin at rider.edu> with the subject line "CORE Submission".
Student track: To encourage student participation, students may submit full papers, research in progress, or proposals. Research in progress and proposals will be allocated shorter presentation times but will allow students to get feedback. When you submit please indicate if you are a student.

SUBMISSION GUIDELINES
Send all submissions electronically to eyetgin at rider.edu <mailto:eyetgin at rider.edu> with the subject line "CORE Submission".
Before submitting, please format papers so that:

1. the first page contains only the paper title, author names, affiliations, and e-mail addresses
2. the second page contains only the paper title and abstract, without author names 
3. identifying information is removed from the file properties
4. all comments are removed and changes are accepted (if necessary)

Papers may be submitted in MS Word or Acrobat formats. If submitting in Acrobat, please submit the title page with author information separately.

REVIEWING
Submissions will be double-blind reviewed. The organizing committee will participate in and coordinate the review process. Submitting authors agree to provide timely reviews of at most two other submissions, if requested.

WORKSHOP FORMAT
The workshop is intended to serve as a showcase of leading cognitive research in information systems. There are no separate tracks or concurrent presentations. The format of the workshop is designed to enable open and constructive discussions of the research, in a spirit of collegial community-building. The workshop will run for half-day.  Our business meeting will be held at the end of the workshop.

EXTENDED ABSTRACTS
This workshop is a forum to present and discuss papers to help authors publish their papers in top academic journals. To prevent copyright issues for subsequent publication, authors of accepted papers will be required to submit an extended abstract which will be distributed at the workshop and made available on the SIG website. The purpose of this extended abstract is to highlight key aspects of the papers presented for discussion. The abstract should include a synthesis of the theoretical background, methods and findings of the full paper. The extended abstract should not exceed 2 pages of single-spaced text including any tables, figures and references.
IMPORTANT DATES
Submission deadline: October 15, 2019
Acceptance notification: November 12, 2019
Submission of extended abstracts for program: December 1, 2019
Workshop: Wednesday, December 18, 2019
