The 2021 APA convention is scheduled to be held online this week! We hope to see you there, as we commence our second cyberspace convention. I am excited to share some of the Div. 25 highlights for the 129th annual meeting. Please make sure to register for the Div. 25 listserv for updates.
We have a wonderful line up of award recipients scheduled to give fantastic presentations about their research, covering topics including Culturo-Behavior Science, translational research, suboptimal choice, substance use disorders, discounting, telehealth, and preschooler consent skills. We are also excited to have six poster presentations to share with attendees on a variety of topics.
Please visit the main convention websiteopens in new window to sign up for updates. Get registration details and keyword search the entire convention program there. You will also find posted programs from other APA divisions as well as content-specific programs there. Note, recorded presentations will be available for 3 months after the conference and registration will continue to be open, even after the convention finishes this week.
Please join us for several live, free sessions including the Div. 25 awards ceremony!
