Presentation Guidelines

ECP 2023

Oral Presentation

Presentation time is 15 minutes per contribution including three minutes for questions and discussion.

7-minute Research - Oral Presentations

These are oral presentations presenting innovative research or practice where the presentation time is 7-minutes per contribution and the aim is to explain the key points as if to an intelligent lay audience, thus giving a short and precise coverage of a topic. They are often very high energy and fun sessions. 

A maximum of 10 slides can be used 

3-minute Thesis - Oral Presentations

These are oral presentations presenting innovative research or practice where the presentation time is 3-minutes per contribution and the aim is to explain the key points as if to an intelligent lay audience, thus giving a short and precise coverage of a topic. They are often very high energy and fun sessions. 

A maximum of 5 slides can be used 

Posters

Posters at ECP 2023 will now be in traditional paper format.

To help keep the environmental impact as low as possible, we want to encourage delegates to have their posters printed in an environmentally-friendly way, and to ensure they are recycled following the event if not retained as a memento.

Support with creating your poster:

  • Printing: We recommend printing your poster in A1 size (841mm high and 594mm wide).

  • Font: The font size of the title should be at least 80-point font size, bold face. The font size of the section headers should be at least 32-point font size, bold face. The font size of the body of the poster (abstract, background, methods, results, discussion) should be between 18 and 26 points.

  • Design: When creating your poster and presentation, consider how you will make your content accessible to all. Here are a few helpful tips:


Structure your poster using the following headings:

  • Background; methods; results; discussion.

  • Use short sentences or bullet points.

  • Break up the text as much as possible using figures, diagrams, tables and images. This will make your poster more attractive and easier to read.

 

Panel Discussions

These sessions will include up to four panellists and one facilitator, discussing an important topic from different perspectives.

These will typically be 60-minute sessions, with 45 minutes guided discussion/debate, followed by 15 minutes open discussion.

Symposia

These are multi-presenter sessions that should be collaborative in nature.

 

A Symposium provides reports of empirical research, innovative practice, and/or theoretical advances. Ideally, it demonstrates real world impact or potential for impact. A Symposium must have participants from at least two different countries and/or from academics and practitioners. 

Each Symposium has a chairperson/convenor and three to five presenters, or three to four presenters and a discussant. The person submitting the symposium proposal is designated as the symposium chair. 

The time allocation is up to a maximum of 60 minutes based on 10 minutes per speaker or discussant plus 10 minutes Q&A.

Psychology can be the driving force to unite.
