Call For Papers

Preaching To The Choir: Moving LGBTQ Psychology Forward Together!
A pre-conference at the International Congress of Applied Psychology

It is a pleasure to invite you to The International LGBTQ Psychology Pre-Conference at ICAP 2018. The conference will take place in Montreal, Quebec on June 25, 2018 as one of the pre-conferences for the 2018 International Congress of Applied Psychology, which is being held in conjunction with the Canadian Psychological Association’s Annual Convention.

We invite you to “Preach to the Choir” of International LGBTQ Psychology researchers. What do you want to share with others in the field of LGBTQ Psychology? What methods, research questions, samples, and findings are important for moving the field forward and ensuring that our research collectively remains on the cutting edge? Where will the field be in 5, 10, 20 years? What can be learned from the history of this new field? You are encouraged to submit research relevant to others in the field to the pre-conference, while also submitting more generalist versions of your work to the larger overall International Congress of Applied Psychology being held June 26-30!

In order for LGBTQ Psychology to be an effective scientific discipline, it must achieve two goals:

Disseminate LGBTQ Psychological Research to a broad academic and clinical audience in order to improve the uptake and utilization of research findings;
Advance the field of LGBTQ Psychology as a separate and valid area of inquiry within the broader field of psychological science.
Meeting these two goals can require separate approaches to research dissemination. While the first might require presenting a form of your research that can be understood and used by a broad, non-LGBTQ-expert audience, the latter requires that researchers in the field learn from each other in order to advance methods of best practice within the field and generate dialogue concerning the field’s challenges, debates, and controversies.

The 2018 Conference is designed to meet both of these goals! The pre-conference invites you to “Preach to the Choir” and move the field of LGBTQ Psychology forward, while the general Congress provides the opportunity to reach more generalist audiences in other areas of Psychology from around the world.

Topics:

Theories of anti-LGBTQ prejudice
Methods of studying and recruiting LGBTQ populations
Measuring sexual and gender identity
Encouraging & Teaching LGBTQ-inclusive research methods
Two-spirit and indigenous experiences of gender and sexuality
Getting LGBTQ (youth) research approved by ethics boards
Intersections with other identities (race, ability, SES, gender identity, nationality, etc.)
What is the future of LGBTQ Psychology?
Historical overviews of LGBTQ Psychology's past and progress
Rifts / Points of contention within LGBTQ Psychology
Global perspectives on LGBTQ Psychology
Diversity within LGBTQ communities

Abstract Submission Instructions: https://ca.surveygizmo.com/s3/50004050/lgbtqsubmit

During the submission process, you will be asked to select your preferred method of presenting. You may select more than one format and rank them by your preference. Abstracts should be no more than 250 words, unless otherwise specified.

Oral Presentation (20 Minutes): An oral presentation that will be grouped with 2-3 other presentations. Each presenter will have roughly 15 minutes to speak and 5 minutes to answer questions.

Symposia (1 Hour): A complete set of 3-5 papers on a coherent topic. Please submit an abstract for the overall symposium explaining how the papers fit together as well as individual abstracts for each paper.

Data Blitz (5 Minutes): These are short, to the point, and fun presentations! Each presenter will be given 5 minutes (and not a second more) and 3 slides in which to present the most important and interesting aspects of their research.

Poster: Poster presentations offer the opportunity to present your work visually. Posters will be displayed at various points throughout the conference and there will be designated times when presenters are asked to stand near their poster in order to engage with those interested in hearing more about the work.

Roundtable Discussion – 1 hour During Lunch: Roundtable discussions are informal sessions where the submitter serves as a discussion facilitator with a small group of delegates interested in discussing the proposed topic. These sessions will take place during lunchtime, offering delegates the opportunity to pick a table to eat at by picking the topic that they would most like to discuss.


Publication of Conference Proceedings:

Authors of accepted presentations will be invited to submit a manuscript based on their presentation for consideration in a special issue of Psychology & Sexuality. Please note that acceptance of a presentation for the pre-conference does not guarantee acceptance of a paper for the special issue, as space will be limited. The anticipated deadline for manuscript submission is December 2018.
