Symposium Submission Information and RequirementsSymposium submissions for SPSP 2010 are closed.The Eleventh Annual Meeting of the Society for Personality and Social Psychology will be held on January 28-30, 2010, in Las Vegas, Nevada. The SPSP Program Committee invites proposals for both symposia and posters. DeadlineThe deadline for submitting a poster or symposium is 5:00 pm PST, on July 20, 2009. Symposium submissions for SPSP 2010 are now closed. Submission RequirementsMembership RequirementThe chair and co-chair of the symposium and the first author of each symposium abstract must each be an SPSP member or student member and have paid his or her dues for the 2009 calendar year. Co-authors of a symposium abstract are not required to be SPSP members. If you are not yet a member and wish to join, please see the SPSP Membership page, where you can join SPSP or renew your membership online. One Submission RuleAn individual may be FIRST AUTHOR on only ONE poster submission OR may serve only ONCE as a symposium speaker. Individuals may, however, be co-authors on more than one paper (symposium and poster). It is the responsibility of the symposia organizers to verify that speakers in their symposia have not submitted their names as speakers in other symposia or are first author on a poster. Failing to do so may result in a symposium being rejected. Individuals are not allowed to switch speaker roles after submission. Registration RequirementAll symposium speakers must register to attend the meeting. No Discussant RuleTo better ensure the chance for audience questions, and for more free-ranging discussion between symposia participants and their audiences, no discussants are allowed in symposia. Number of SpeakersEach symposium must have either three or four speakers. This rule was also adopted to encourage more discussion and speaker-audience interchange. Presentation FormatSeventy-five minute spoken presentations, including three or four talks on a common topic, printed as symposia abstracts in the Proceedings. Symposium submissions must include titles, abstracts of up to 250 words plus the affiliation(s) and email address for each speaker, and a 250-word (maximum) summary describing and justifying the symposium theme. Include audio/visual requirements. Submission Content
Submissions will be reviewed with regard to scholarly/theoretical merit, soundness of methodology, relevance to social and personality psychology, clarity of presentation, significance, and originality. Final selection among submissions deemed meritorious will be made with an eye toward achieving a balanced and broadly representative program.
