The ninth installment of CAMP is coming to UCSB on November 6-7-8, 2026!

🏕️ What is CAMP?

The CAlifornia Meeting on Psycholinguistics is a free, informal two-day workshop to promote psycholinguistics research in California. All are welcome to submit, but student and post-doc research will be prioritized. Research areas include, but are not limited to:

• Adult and child language processing
• Language comprehension
• Language planning and production
• Developmental psycholinguistics
• Computational psycholinguistics
• Bilingual language processing
• Neurolinguistics
• Experimental syntax, semantics, phonetics, or phonology

By conference policy, registration is free and everyone is welcome to attend but first authors must be based in California.
