Hot Topics

The scientific program of the Summer School will also include two hot topic sessions addressing current major challenges faced by young scientists, namely publishing and ethics. These sessions will be coordinated by the workshop tutors and open to all the students. 

Hot Topic Session 1 - Ethics (Monday, August 25 at 14h - Auditório J.J. Laginha)

Ethical conduct in psychological research is one of the most currently discussed issues. We will ask some of our invited guests to pass on their views on this ongoing debate and to provide some guidelines towards a proper ethical research conduct.

Hot Topic Session 2 - Publishing (Tuesday, August 26 at 14h - Auditório J.J. Laginha)

One of the main concerns of young scientists is how to work effectively to publish their research. In this Summer School participants will have the opportunity of hearing from senior scientists some tips on how to effectively write articles and gaining acceptance in high-quality journals.
