Call for Abstracts

We are excited to invite abstract submissions for the Virtual Poster Session at the upcoming Industrial/Organizational Psychology and Organizational Behaviour Graduate Student Conference.

This conference is designed to foster connection, collaboration, and professional development among graduate students conducting research in I/O Psychology, Organizational Behaviour, and related disciplines.

Date: February 27, 2026
Format: Virtual Breakout Rooms + Online Poster Gallery

About the Poster Session

Our poster session is designed as a networking and discussion forum rather than a traditional presentation. Poster presenters will be grouped into virtual breakout rooms based on research themes, offering the chance to connect, exchange feedback, and share ideas with peers in a supportive environment.

In addition to the live session, all posters will be featured in an online gallery available to attendees before and after the conference.

We welcome submissions including:

  • Previously presented research posters

  • Work-in-progress or proposed studies (conceptual or data collection stage)

  • Research across all areas of I/O Psychology, Organizational Behaviour, and related fields

Abstract Submission Guidelines

  • Abstract Length: Maximum 250 words

  • Submission Deadline: January 31, 2026, 11:59 PM

  • Notification of Acceptance: February 7, 2026

You do not need to have completed your project to participate—this is a great opportunity to share ideas, receive feedback, and engage with others working on similar topics!
