Consolidation and extension in theory and research
We are seeking contributions for a symposium we hope to convene at ICEP. The intended theme of the symposium is "Restorative environments: Consolidation and extension in theory and research". Contributions concerned with consolidation could include, for example, reports on empirical studies designed to replicate well-known findings or conceptual analyses that clarify aspects of widely used theory. Contributions concerned with extension could include, for example, empirical studies focused on new methods and/or new practical applications.
Please send an expression of interest to both of us at the email addresses given below, along with a few sentences about the contents of the likely presentation. We are *not* requesting an abstract at this point. Given many expressions of interest, we will consult with the conference organizers about the possibility of having multiple sessions in the symposium. Once we know how many sessions we can work with and we have a coherent set of proposed presentations for the session(s), we will request abstracts, which we will then want to receive 22 March, a week before the deadline for abstract submission on 29 March.
Those interested in presenting on new theorizing and theoretical extensions or on the role of personality and other sociodemographic factors in modifying the restorative effects of environments should contact Femke Beute, Eleanor Ratcliffe and Kayleigh Wyles, who are organizing symposia on those topics. We would certainly encourage others in the REN to also consider organizing symposia at the ICEP.
Convenors: Terry Hartig (terry.hartig@ibf.uu.se) and Henk Staats (staats@fsw.leidenuniv.nl)
