PRESENTATION RULES

 

On behalf of the European Association of Psychology and Law (EAPL), it is our pleasure to invite you to the Annual Conference of the European Association of Psychology and Law (EAPL 2024), with the topic New Challenges in Research and Practice.

 

​

​​

 

​

​

TYPES OF SUBMISSIONS AND OVERVIEW:

​

​

ORAL PRESENTATION

  • Oral presentation sessions provide the opportunity for an extended presentation of your research, followed by a discussion with participants within dedicated parallel sessions, which will be grouped by the organisers.

  • The duration of oral presentations is 10 minutes for the presentation and 5 minutes for discussions and questions.

 

POSTER PRESENTATION

  • The poster session will be a unique opportunity for extended discussion of your research, potentially with all conference participants.

  • Participation: We require one poster author to attend the entire respective session.

 

BLITZ-TALK

  • Blitz-Talks are concise individual contributions.

  • Each presenter will have 5 minutes to present and 2 minutes for questions.

  • Blitz-Talks can report all types of research, but this submission type is especially suitable for presenting single studies on novel topics, new data for discussion, replication studies, null findings, and multi-study papers using a well-known methodology.

 

SYMPOSIUM

  • To encourage interaction between EAPL members on specific common topics of interest, we are welcoming oral symposia.

  • A symposium chair (or two co-chairs) invites three to five colleagues, ideally from different research groups.

  • A symposium will contain a maximum of 5 presentations and can last up to 1,5 hours maximum.

  • The duration of one presentation is 15 minutes maximum. Within each symposium, a minimum of 10 minutes should be left for final discussions.

 

​

IMPORTANT INFORMATION:

​

  • Presenting author must register as a participant and pay the participation fee; otherwise, the abstract will be automatically removed from the program.

  • One author can have a maximum of TWO presentations - first author (e.g., speaker in a symposium and one poster).

  • The duration of oral presentations is between 15 and 20 minutes (ideally leaving 5 minutes for a brief discussion).

  • Posters are displayed for 90 minutes.

  • The authors may indicate a preference for oral presentation/poster on the abstract submission form. However, considering schedule limitations, the organisers reserve the right to reallocate some oral presentations as poster presentations.

  • The author is solely responsible for the ethical and scientific content of the submission.

  • There are no fees for submitting abstracts.

  • Submitted abstracts cannot be modified or corrected after the submission deadline and will be published exactly as submitted.

  • Submission of an abstract constitutes the authors consent for publication (on EAPL 2024 website, program, and other promotions).

 

SPECIAL INFORMATION FOR SYMPOSIA AND POSTERS

​

Submission guidelines for the symposium chair:

 

When submitting your symposium description, please fill out the name of your symposium in the Title field. The chair (and potential co-chair) will first create the new symposium name and introduce it in the Title field. Next, they will be required to add a brief symposium description. This will be followed by the chair adding each individual presentation, containing authors’ names, affiliations, titles, and abstracts (maximum 300 words).

​
