Call for Abstracts and Discussants
We invite submissions of abstracts (for online or on-site presentation) that address the need for improved theoretical structures in the empirical social and behavioral sciences. Please submit either (i) your own scholarly work or (ii) your reasoned response to a draft by this research group (https://osf.io/zue4h). Under (i), preference is given to presentations of reconstructed theoretical structures, proposals for new structures, and explanatory accounts why such structures are rare today, as evaluated by the organizers. (The prior probability of acceptance is independent of the type of submission.)

 

Format
Presentations last 20 minutes plus 20 minutes for discussion. We expect at least 10 active participants, plus audience members, meeting from Friday afternoon to Sunday afternoon, preferably on-site, with online participation possible.

 

Submission

Please indicate the title and content of your presentation in a max 500-word abstract, prepared for blind reviewing, and submitted on or before 1 September 2021 at https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=its20210. (References do not count towards the word limit).

 

Bursaries
The project hosts invited participants, covering their accommodation (at least 3 nights) and a dinner. Travel bursaries are available for invited junior scholars (within 7 years of obtaining their PhD). All other participants are expected to cover their own travel costs.
