There are 2 types of poster submissions for the APS Global Psychological Science Summit:
- Standard Poster: Standard Poster submissions must only report data collection and analysis that has been completed by the time the submission is finalized. Submissions that do not report collected data and analyses, or that do not have enough collected data or analysis to make an empirical claim, will not be accepted. Non-empirical research should not be submitted as a poster.
- Research Proposal Poster: Research Proposal Posters should represent plans for a future empirical study. Data collection should not be complete. This is a chance to receive early feedback on your research study plan. Your submission should describe an empirical research study plan in detail including hypotheses, experimental design, plan for participant recruitment, procedure, plan for statistical analysis, and expected results.
Roundtable Sessions
Roundtable sessions are an opportunity for attendees to lead discussions on a particular topic with fellow attendees. Roundtable session presenters should plan for a short presentation accompanied by slides (5-7 minutes), followed by a discussion with attendees. The entire session has been scheduled for 45-minutes. Roundtable session presenters can discuss empirical results, methods and tools, applications of psychological science, brainstorm a future research project, or find new collaborators. Each roundtable submission session will have 1 organizer and 1 co-presenter, for a total of 2 presenters listed. In the live roundtable session attendees will join the organizer and co-presenter for the discussion. Attendees are not listed on the submission.
Roundtable sessions has been scheduled concurrently during the same designated times each day in the program schedule. Please indicate your scheduling preference in your roundtable session submission. APS will attempt to accommodate your scheduling preference, however, there is no guarantee that all requests will be met. Scheduling has been confirmed with your review notification. No changes can be made to your assigned schedule.

Since a limited number of roundtable sessions can be accepted, we encourage you to also submit your research as a poster. If you are submitting the same proposal as a roundtable session and a poster, please add either “Poster” or “Roundtable” to the beginning of the title. The submission system will not allow you to submit two proposals with the same title. If your submission is accepted for both a roundtable session and a poster, you may present both submission types.
Note: Roundtable session submissions will not automatically be considered for presentation as a poster.
