Psi Chi


Psi Chi sponsors programming hours as part of the MPA convention. These hours include three student poster sessions, several paper sessions for student Regional Research Award winners, as well as sessions on successful admission to graduate school and jobs for psychology majors. Students at institutions with no Psi Chi chapter may submit papers to the Psi Chi program. If those papers are accepted they can be presented at one of poster sessions but will not be eligible for a Regional Research Award. (The awards are reserved only for Psi Chi members.)

The Psi Chi MPA site is located here.

Questions regarding the Psi Chi program at MPA should be directed to:

Submissions to the Psi Chi program are due 5 p.m. CST on November 5, 2010. Complete instructions for submitting to the Psi Chi program held at MPA are available here.

Society for the Teaching of Psychology (STP)


The former programming by the Council of Teachers of Undergraduate Psychology (CTUP) has been replaced by programming from the Society for the Teaching of Psychology (STP). STP invites all teachers of undergraduate psychology in high schools, community colleges, four-year colleges, and universities to join in improving education in psychology. STP accepts three kinds of submissions: Oral Sessions (which are of a variety of different types), Creative Classroom Posters, and Creative Department or Program Posters (see below). There also will be an invited program, chaired by Meera Komarraju, Southern Illinois University, Carbondale. View submission information or contact ddahlgre@ius.edu for more information.

Submission deadline is December 1.
