People eligible to submit
Papers may be presented by voting members, active members, and student members of SSSR, or where there is space, by other active reading researchers not (yet) a member of the Society.

Symposia
A symposium provides an opportunity to examine one topic in depth or from different perspectives. Symposium sessions are directed by one chair, with five presenters of 15 min spoken papers, each followed by audience discussion. Presenters should represent different laboratories and an international mix of contributors is encouraged.

(Spoken) Paper sessions
The paper sessions comprise 15-minute oral presentations of five papers, each followed by audience discussion. These should be submitted individually, and the program committee will organize them into topically coherent sessions, depending on the number of symposia and available space. If space is not available, presenters may be given the opportunity to present in interactive paper sessions.

Interactive paper sessions
An interactive (poster) involves a text and graphic display of research findings in the field of reading. Interactive presentation is an excellent format for presenting your research in a way that encourages real, in-depth and stimulating discussions, both for senior and promising young researchers. This format is therefore highly recommended by the Society.

Travel Awards
See here for information and applications for travel awards for presenters from emerging or developing countries.

Priority goes to scientific studies that are completed and are of the highest quality. Papers will be reviewed by a program committee. Papers that are part of a symposium organized by a SSSR member (voting or active) should be collectively submitted. Although an attempt will be made to accommodate all proposals judged favorably, space limitations may be a factor in the final selection of papers. If space limits the number of spoken papers, an author's willingness to give an interactive paper (poster) instead of a spoken paper increases the chances of the paper's inclusion on the program. First authors are responsible for submission and will be notified by email of the acceptance or rejection of the paper. Only one presentation will be accepted per first author (included participation in any format). Any author who becomes unable to present a paper listed in the program should contact the program chair immediately by email. Failure to do so may result in loss of eligibility at the next year's meeting.

Your submission is taken to affirm your understanding that proposals for this meeting are original and affirm that identical work has not been published nor presented at another professional meeting. Whereas papers from voting members are given priority, space limitations prevent their automatic acceptance.

• Membership Status [Automatic]
  • Voting member
  • Active member
  • Student member
  • Non-member
  • Application for membership in progress
• Second author, etc. (as above) + membership status
• Title of Presentation
• Type of paper: Spoken Paper / Interactive Paper / Symposium
• Preference for participation. If program space is limited, would you be prepared to present an interactive paper (poster)? Yes / No
• For spoken or interactive papers: An abstract (max = 250 words) containing the following headings:
  • Purpose – concise statement of the specific purposes, questions addressed, and/or hypotheses tested.
  • Method – description of the design, participants, material, and analyses relevant to carrying out the study. For non data-based submissions, provide information concerning methods used to collect, summarize, and organize information.
  • Results - summary of the findings directly related to the purpose of the study.
  • Conclusions – statement concerning the relevance and/or implications of the findings.
• For symposium submissions only: A brief summary (max – 150 words) of the purpose of the symposium and the theoretically or applied relationship between papers. Avoid redundancy with paper abstracts. Normally, a symposium consists of 5 spoken papers and a discussion. International participation is encouraged and the majority of participants should not come from the same institution/laboratory. For each paper/discussion, the title, authors, and structured abstract (similar to what is provided with spoken/interactive papers) should be provided by the chair of the symposium in a single submission.
• Willingness to chair a session? (a) yes, (b) no.
• Key words: Select the key words that best describe your presentation (up to 5) from the list below.
