The Cognitive Therapy
SIG (Special Interest Group) will have poster slots available at the 2023 ABCT Convention in
Seattle.
For those of you who have
never attended the convention, each year there is a reception on Friday night,
featuring posters from each of the SIGs.
If you (or a student you
supervise) have a poster idea having relevance to cognitive therapy, please
consider submitting. A poster accepted to the CT SIG is listed in the ABCT
conference book and is a great way for graduate students and young professionals
to build their CV and to share recent work at ABCT.
Submission of original research,
meta and mega analyses are preferred, although case studies will be considered.
Please do not submit posters that have already been accepted as part of the
regular conference.
