Guidelines

April 20 (Wed) - June 30 (Thu), 2022
 

• "One-paper-per-person" policy applies. A participant must present only one (1) paper in any capacity. This includes author and co-author. (An author of paper A cannot apply as a co-author of paper B at the same time.)
• The AP Conference secretariat checks all manuscripts with Turnitin software to make sure they are original and that citations have been properly done and placed in the References section.
• Presentation language is either English or Japanese.
• The presentation could be made by an individual or by a pre-formed panel (group).
• If applying as a pre-formed panel, each panel is limited to four presenters.
• In the case of applications for pre-formed panels, each presenter is required to submit their own application. Please register the panel title with the common title, and register each presenter's title and abstract in the presentation details. Only the representative of the panel should submit an abstract for the panel.
• Master’s students and undergraduates may be separated from general panels according to the contents of their applications.
• Presenters cannot specify their presentation time or day.

Please select the most relevant research field to your topic.

• All submitted abstracts will be screened.
• Screening results will be notified to your registered e-mail in early August.
• The date and time of the presentation will be announced in early October.

• Accepted by online registration on this website.
• A maximum of four authors can be registered.
• In the case of pre-formed panels, it is possible to have a maximum of four presenters per panel. Presentation time is 100 minutes (1 hour and 40 minutes).
• Submit an abstract in the language of presentation at most 400 words in Japanese, and 150-200 words by APA style in English.
• An abstract should Include (1) Purpose of research, (2) Methodology and results, and (3) Conclusion and relevance.
• An e-mail notice with a reception number will be sent to the registered email address upon completion. The notice will usually be sent within a few minutes; however, if you do not receive it, you may not have completed the submission.  While confirming the registration details, register yourself again.

• Check a login screen on the issue of recommended browsers in your computer system.  Even if you have access to the web on the recommended browser, you may not be able to register depending on your computer environment.  In case you cannot make it, try to register on another computer with a different computing environment.
• Apply at an early stage, as the Internet line will be busy just before the deadline.  The secretariat does not hold any responsibility for any incomplete registration due to a  line congestion.
• The secretariat does not hold any responsibility for any mistakes made by an applicant.  Make sure that contents are correct before pressing the registration button.
