Dear DAVID,
Paper submissions for the 2021 APA Pacific Division meeting opened on August 1, and will close on Tuesday, September 1, at 11:59 p.m. Pacific Time. All current members of the APA are invited to submit a paper for presentation at the meeting, which is planned for March 31–April 4 in Portland, OR. Submission guidelines and information about graduate student stipends can be found on the APA website.
Note: Currently, the Pacific Division is planning to hold an in-person meeting in 2021. At the same time, we are also considering alternative formats, such as virtual meetings, as contingencies in the case that our usual meeting format becomes impossible. Though external forces like the ongoing pandemic affect and inform our plans, your participation is the most critical input for planning any meeting. If you are considering submitting a paper, we encourage you to do so.
Submissions are accepted only through the APA’s submission website. The submission system is new, and we have created a short video that covers the submission process.
Only current members of the APA can submit a paper. If you are not a current member, you can join or renew your membership, and then submit your paper. We encourage authors to submit papers as soon as possible in order to avoid a rush in the final hours of submissions—APA staff will not be available to answer questions after 2 p.m. Pacific Time on September 1.
Thank you,
Mike Morris
Deputy Director
