Commitments in Communication

 

Workshop: Measuring Commitments

  • 18-19th June, 2026
  • Radboud University Nijmegen
  •  

As part of the NWO project Commitments in Communication, we will organize a two-day workshop on the topic of commitment in communication, with a particular focus on experimental approaches to its study. While commitment attribution, negotiation, and avoidance play a central role in communication, its nuances remain difficult to operationalize and measure. The workshop aims to explore how experimental methods can be used to contribute to theoretical accounts.  

Keynote speakers:

  • Benjamin Weissman
  • Mailin Antomo
  • Tatjana Scheffler
  • Manfred Krifka

Organizers:

  • Harriet Yates
  • Bob van Tiel
  • Thomas van der Leer
  • Peter de Swart
  • Corien Bary
