Diagrams is the only conference series that provides a united forum for all areas that are concerned with the study of diagrams and has a multidisciplinary emphasis.
For 2024, we will have a special track devoted to psychological and educational issues pertaining to diagrams. Special theme topics include any research dealing with psychological and/or educational aspects of diagrams, such as:
– cognitive aspects of diagrams and diagrammatic thinking,
– comprehension of diagrams,
– construction and use of diagrams,
– diagrams and wayfinding,
– diagrams as learning and pedagogical tools,
– diagrams in the mind,
– diagrams in communication,
– human perception and the design of diagrams,
– individual differences in diagram use,
– mental imagery and mental animation,
– problem solving with diagrams,
– reasoning with diagrams from a psychological or educational perspective,
– sociocultural interpretations of diagrams,
– spatial structure of diagrams,
– students’ use or misuse of diagrams.
In addition to the Psychology & Education track, Diagrams 2024 will have two further tracks: Main, and Philosophy. If the main research contribution of your submission is considered to fit either of the other tracks then you are strongly encouraged to submit to the respective special track, each of which has a dedicated program committee.
