ANNUAL MEETING OF THE SOCIETY FOR JUDGMENT AND DECISION MAKING
The Society for Judgment and Decision Making (SJDM) invites abstracts for oral presentations and posters on any topic related to judgment and decision making. Completed manuscripts are not required. Submissions should include a short (100 word) abstract and a long (600 words) abstract (for talks).
LOCATION, DATES, AND PROGRAM
SJDM's annual conference will be held in New Orleans, Louisiana, November 17-19, 2018.
SUBMISSIONS
The deadline for submissions is Friday, June 22, 2018, end of the day. Submissions for oral presentations and posters should be made through the online portal, which can also be found on the SJDM website. The submissions portal is now open. Questions can be addressed to the program chair, Oleg Urminsky, at oleg.urminsky@chicagobooth.edu.
ELIGIBILITY
At least one author of each presentation must be a member of SJDM, by one week after the deadline for submission (to allow time for dues paid by mail). You may join SJDM at http://www.sjdm.org/join.html. An individual may give only one talk and present only one poster, but may be a co-author on multiple talks and/or posters. Please note that both the membership rule and the one-talk/one-poster rule will be strictly enforced.
NOTE FOR NON-US CITIZENS REQUIRING VISAS
Travelers from certain countries may need extra lead time to obtain travel documents, and we encourage authors to start the visa process right away. Although we are unable to accept talks early, we can provide notification of an "accepted presentation." This means that you would at least be guaranteed a poster. We can do this because posters are typically evaluated only for content and most are accepted. To take advantage of this option, you should still submit through the regular process, make sure to indicate that you are willing to present a poster, and also send a request to the program chair, Oleg Urminsky, at oleg.urminsky@chicagobooth.edu.
