Perceptual metacognition is the study of the subjective evaluation and control of perceptual processes. The past decade has witnessed a rapid rise in interest in perceptual metacognition amongst philosophers, neuroscientists, psychologists and computer scientists. Perceptual metacognition also has close links with the study of perceptual awareness, and has been a mainstay of presentations and symposia at ASSC over the past few years. We think the time is right for a regular meeting dedicated to this field.

This one-day workshop (with a late start, mindful of the ASSC after party the night before!) will showcase the latest research on perceptual confidence and metacognition, in the form of both keynotes and short presentations from invited early-career researchers. Registration is free but places are limited, so please register early to attend. We hope to stream the talks live for those unable to attend in person.
