My research is on interpersonal violence, but not child abuse or spouse abuse. Are other types of violence research welcome?
Yes, we are expecting research on bullying, cyberbullying, sexting, and other internet victimization, and other peer violence. The topic of family violence has expanded to include same-sex relationships and other family constellations that were once considered "non-traditional." We are interested in other types of victimization and perpetration too, especially with regard to how other types of violence may relate or co-occur with family and youth violence.
My research is on treatment or prevention. Are topics related to intervention and prevention welcome?
Yes, most definitely. We have always featured many talks on treatment and prevention of violence. This year we expect to have some talks presenting data from randomized controlled trials of programs as well as other types of program evaluation. We are interested in the scientific study of all aspects of violence and the societal response to it.
How do I find where and when I appear on the program?
Prior to the conference, information on the dates and times of all presentations will be emailed to you.
Can I change the time and location of my presentation after it is scheduled?
No. We have a large amount of submissions to schedule; to try and change even one creates a domino effect. We ask that if you submit, please plan on the entire meeting days and times so you can allow for whatever time you are scheduled.
Will the session rooms have internet for presenting?
Yes, all rooms will have wireless internet
I will need special equipment for my presentation. Who can assist me in obtaining equipment?
The Conference Administrator will send you a presentation needs form. On this form, please let the conference team know what you will need.
I do not have access to a computer or the internet. How can I submit an abstract?
You will need access to a computer and the internet in order to submit an abstract.
