I know most conferences that focus on broad social or cognitive psychology accept posters, but i am more interested in those that are willing to consider talks, or where I wouldn't be an "outlier" in terms of research topic.
I just saw that you are from London. There is an international counterpart to AP-LS (American Psychology - Law Society) and they hold conferences every other year.
Hi Dorothy,
Thanks for the information. I am finding that some of the law or forensic psychology conferences seem to be interested in deception research.
I will look into the one you mentioned.
It depends on what you mean with "bigger conferences", but given that you are in Europe, the conferences of the European Association of Psychology and Law (EAPL) might be a good fit for your work.
Thank you Maria.
I was a bit vague in my definition of the type of conference I am looking for, partly because I wanted the potential answers to not be limited before I get a feel of what is out there.
Currently, I am interested in conferences that are both large in size but also very well known, and worth attending at the start of one's career. The few that I have already attended were very useful in providing feedback on my ideas from individuals from various fields; so I try to aim for ones that, while still focused, reach out to various specialties that may relate to my work, psych law being among them.
Also, since I am still a PhD student, and funding being what it is, I can only attend one, maybe two overseas conferences per year, so I am trying to find "the one" to go to, hence the vagueness of my question.
Now that I think about it, it may have been better to frame the questions as "new or obscure" conferences on deception, as I am less likely to "stumble upon" them as with the bigger ones. So any answers are highly welcomed and appreciated.
In adition to the AP-LS and EAPL conferences, you may also consider the SARMAC (Society for Applied Research in Memory and Cognition) conferences. It had a lot of deception presentations in 2013.
Thank you Juame. I was considering going to the next SARMAC conf. I had a colleague that went to the last one and told me that quite a few people had at least posters on deception related topics.
It seems that more conferences are willing to accept submissions on deception even if it is not the main theme.
I have also found one this year called "Deception: Probing the boundaries", which seems to be the first one they have made on this topic, and might be promising.
