CALL FOR PAPERS

 

37th Annual Meeting of the Society for Mathematical Psychology

July 29-August 1, 2004

Sponsored by the Department of Psychology

University of Michigan at Ann Arbor

 

The 37th Annual Meeting of the Society for Mathematical Psychology will be held at the University of Michigan, Ann Arbor in Ann Arbor, Michigan. The regular sessions will follow the usual format with paper (and possibly poster) sessions over two and a half days (from July 30, Friday morning till August 1, Sunday noon).

Papers for the Annual Meeting may be submitted by regular members, student members, and nonmembers. Any one person may present only one paper but may be a coauthor of other papers, or may be an invited speaker or symposium participant. Papers will be limited to those in which mathematical, statistical, and simulation methods play a significant role in the development of psychological ideas or in the interpretation of results. Purely theoretical developments should clearly relate to some psychological issue or contribute to methodologies of obvious use in psychology. Experimental results should bear directly on some mathematical or simulation model. For details, see submission guideline. Programs of some past meetings appear in the Journal of Mathematical Psychology, and through the website of the Society for Mathematical Psychology.  

Abstracts of papers must be received by April 30, 2004

Papers are accepted on the basis of their quality and suitability and not according to the author's affiliation with the Society. For oral papers, presentation time will be limited to 25 minutes including five minutes for discussion. Sessions will be strictly timed.

As is customary during past meetings, we are considering adding a poster session if there are sufficient submissions. Poster presentations have the advantage of longer discussion time, less formality, and closer audience contact. The "status" associated with poster presentations will be equal to that associated with oral presentations.
