Dear Colleagues,
I am writing to you regarding the Society for Affective Science (SAS) and its annual meeting, which will be held in-person from Thursday, March 30 - Saturday, April 1, 2023 in Long Beach, California, USA.
On behalf of the SAS membership and outreach committee, I encourage you and your trainees to attend. SAS is an excellent venue for learning about what’s new in affective science and presenting research. The interdisciplinary nature of the program is also uniquely beneficial.
In the call for abstracts below, you will find highlights of the upcoming meeting and opportunities for you and your trainees to submit abstracts for presentation.
Please let me know if you have any questions. I hope you will join us in Long Beach, CA at the 2023 SAS meeting!
All the best,

SAS 2023 Call for Abstracts - Submissions Open
The Society for Affective Science (SAS) is delighted to open its call for abstracts to be considered for the 2023 Annual Conference. The conference will be held in an in-person format between Thursday, March 30 – Saturday, April 1, 2023 in Long Beach, California, USA. The conference will once again feature Preconference sessions and these will take place on Thursday, March 30th, 2023 prior to the opening of the Conference.
We encourage submissions from authors at all career stages.
There is no fee to submit an abstract. The conference registration fees will be announced soon.
Abstract Submissions – Main Conference
Four submission types:
Note: Each presenting author may submit a maximum of TWO abstracts, which have to be submitted to two different tracks (Poster: New Idea, Poster: New Results, Flash Talk, and Symposium). Abstracts submitted by the same presenter must reflect two different research projects. There is no abstract limit for non-presenting authors.
· Poster: New Idea - Showcasing a new research idea, complete with planned experimental design(s) and analysis approach(es). Data are not required, but pilot data for proof of concept are welcome. Work already pre-registered in another platform is admissible. New theoretical contributions are also welcome in this category.
· Poster: New Results - Showcasing the latest findings in affective science based on quantitative and/or qualitative data collected and analyzed. We welcome and encourage preliminary work!
· Flash Talk - Showcasing the latest findings based on quantitative and/or qualitative data already collected and analyzed or new theoretical contributions in affective science. Both junior and senior researchers are eligible to deliver a flash talk.
· Symposium - Set of talks providing an in-depth perspective on individual research areas/topics within affective science. Sessions can be comprised of 3 talks with a discussant or 4 talks. All symposia must be chaired.
Advancing Interdisciplinary Science
In line with our goal to facilitate interdisciplinarity, we welcome submissions from across all domains of affective science, including anthropology, business, computer science, cultural studies, economics, education, geography, history, integrative medicine, law, linguistics, literature, neuroscience, philosophy, political science, psychiatry, psychology, public health, sociology, theater, and more.

Abstract Submissions - Preconference
This year, SAS is hosting 3 preconferences: Positive Emotions, Intergroup Emotions, and Emotion Regulation on Thursday, March 30, 2023.
· Positive Emotions Preconference will feature the latest interdisciplinary research on positive affect. The day will explore a wide range of research related to positive emotions in educational, clinical, social, organizational, consumer, and cross-cultural contexts. Additionally, the preconference will include an interactive poster session and conclude with a final session on the future of positive emotion research. Flash talk and poster submission will be accepted.
· Intergroup Emotions Preconference will focus on the role of emotions in political processes, including political polarization, voting, collective action, political violence, and upholding democracy. With the political turmoil that has risen in the last decade across the world, understanding the impact that emotions have on political processes is paramount. Flash talk and poster submission will be accepted.
· Emotion Regulation Preconference will feature emotion regulation research from various disciplines and topics, consider emotion regulation from different perspectives, and share exciting new findings and methods. It will feature a range of formats from short talks to panel discussions to breakout groups. Our goal is to have fun, build connections among those interested in emotion regulation (faculty, post-docs, students), and share ideas about new directions in emotion regulation research. Invited talks only.

Lectureship in Psychology
As part of the continued development of the School of Psychology at the University of Aberdeen, applications are invited from candidates who have a track record of outstanding independent research, as evidenced by high quality publications in leading academic journals and have interests which extend the School’s existing research strengths.
Research in the School of Psychology falls broadly into three themes: (1) Perception & Attention, (2) Cognition, and (3) Social Cognition. Although each staff member is assigned to a single theme, there is extensive collaboration and overlap of interests within the School. The School houses state-of-the-art facilities to support world-leading research across these three themes, including extensive eye tracking facilities (both lab-based and mobile), EEG systems, TMS systems, psychophysics laboratories and motion tracking facilities.
We have a particular research expertise on the perceptual, cognitive and social dimensions of human behaviour, drawing on research across the three themes. We are looking to build upon our existing strengths in this domain, with a goal to model mechanisms of human interaction through the application of behavioural science, artificial intelligence and neuroscience techniques. We welcome applicants with expertise that can extend and enhance our research portfolio, including, but not limited to, the use of data science techniques such as machine learning, deep learning and computational modelling to advance psychological research.
Salaries will be at the appropriate point on the Grade 7 scale (£43,414 - £51,805 per annum), with placement according to qualifications and experience.
Should you wish to make an informal enquiry, please contact Professor Amelia Hunt (a.hunt(a)abdn.ac.uk), Chair of Search Committee. Please do not email applications to Professor Hunt and apply online for this position www.abdn.ac.uk/jobs.
