CPA Poster Submission

Poster Overview:

For full details, consult the Call for Poster Proposals section of the main CPA2024 website.

The CPA2024 conference will include multiple poster sessions. Presenters will be provided with poster size requirements after acceptance. The lead presenter on the poster must submit an abstract (max 225 words) that describes the poster, including background, methodology, results, and discussion/conclusions. See the review criteria below for additional information about how abstracts will be adjudicated so that you can address the required points accordingly.

First-Author Submission Policy for CPA2024: 

To increase opportunity for more attendees to present posters at the CPA 2024 conference, poster submissions are limited to one abstract per first-author. Although attendees may be listed as co-authors on multiple abstracts, you may only submit one poster abstract as first author.

Peer Review Process & Evaluation Criteria:

The CPA 2024 Program Committee aims to be as transparent as possible considering the peer review process. Poster submissions will be peer reviewed by a minimum of 2 doctoral level reviewers. Submissions will be rated according to four review criteria. 
  1. Overall Quality/Importance: Justify that the study addresses significant research questions
  2. Innovation/Originality: Indicate that the study yields novel knowledge in addiction psychology
  3. Approach/Methodology: Summarize rigorous and sound research methods
  4. Diversity Considerations: Discuss relevance to underrepresented and minoritized groups, issues related to generalizability, and/or implications for research with diverse populations
Each criterion is rated on a scale from 1-7, (1 = very good / high priority; 2 = good; 3-5 = average; 6 = poor; 7 = very poor / low priority / no mention of diversity considerations). An average score across the reviewers is generated for each submission. Abstracts with high discrepancy in scores will be reviewed by an additional reviewer.

Graduate student trainees or postdoctoral fellows who identify as members of an underrepresented minority group and have limited financial resources to attend the conference may be selected for one of the diversity registration waivers or travel awards. You may provide answers for the following voluntarily in order to be considered.

To demonstrate financial need, applicants should describe any financial resources they have to attend CPA2023, including personal grant funds / scholarships / fellowships, graduate school travel funding, supervisor/advisor funds, etc. (approximately 3-4 sentences)
Inclusive Poster Award
The "Inclusive Poster Award" at the CPA recognizes outstanding research posters that exemplify a commitment to inclusivity and diversity in the field of psychology. This award (presented by the CPA Diversity Committee) seeks to honor posters that address issues relevant to underrepresented and minoritized groups, grapple with challenges related to generalizability, and highlight the implications of their research for advancing our understanding of diverse populations, fostering inclusivity, and promoting equity in psychological research and practice.
