Call for Abstracts
This inclusive event is open to all however we aim to welcome academics and students
(PhD and Masters) working on topics directly in or related to I/O Psychology (I/OP) and
Organisational Behaviour (OB). The aim of the conference is for I/OP and OB researchers
to get together and discuss their own research and is intended to promote a better
understanding of each other’s research and develop a stronger I/OP and OB community.
A range of papers will be accepted that fit under the term ‘research’ including but not
limited to: conceptual papers, empirical studies and work-in-progress. While we
traditionally have a single stream approach for the conference, this year we are
launching a lunch-time Poster Session so we are especially interested in Masters and
PhD Students to contribute to this.
An extended abstract (1,000 words max.) can be emailed to: Professor Jarrod Haar
([email protected]) by 31 October 2014, 5pm
Please indicate the status of contributors (academic, professional, student) and whether
you are targeting the Poster Session only.
To assist reviewers please style your submission using these abstract headings: purpose;
methodology approach; findings; research limitations; practical implications; originality
Authors can be lead author in one submission only, but may contribute to others.
Your abstract will be peer-reviewed and constructive feedback returned to you
Upon submitting an abstract you will be asked to review two papers (return the review
sheet to [email protected] by 17 November 2014, 5pm). Your own paper will only
be considered for acceptance in the conference programme if you also contribute by
completing reviews in a timely manner.
The organising committee will aim to return constructive feedback to you by 24
November, allowing time (if necessary) to provide a revised abstract by 5 December
2014, 5pm.
