Call for Student Papers for Scholarship Awards

By IARP Headquarters posted 06-06-2013 15:00

  

DEADLINE: JULY 1, 2013

IARP invites interested rehabilitation counseling graduate students to submit papers for presentation at the
2013 IARP Forensic Conference to be held on November 7- 9at the Charleston Marriott in Charleston, South Carolina.
All entries must be free-standing papers, written between September 1, 2012 and July 1, 2013. The paper must be done by the student on an independent basis. If two students co-author a paper, both names must be on the submittal application.

The submission requirements include an electronic copy of the paper in APA 6th edition style (approximately 15 – 20 pages); a cover page giving the student’s full name, address, telephone number, title of the paper; an abstract (150 words maximum); and a written statement from the student’s faculty advisor verifying current student status and
that the paper is the sole work of the student.

PAPERS MUST BE POSTMARKED NO LATER THAN JULY 1, 2013 to be accepted for the competition NO EXCEPTIONS.

A panel of rehabilitation counseling educators/practitioners will review the papers. Reviewers will evaluate each manuscript using 10 point Likert-type scales (10=high) to assign points in three categories (Content, Organization, Overall Evaluation). Category points will be summed for a “total score”.

Scholarships will be awarded with the first place winner receiving a cash award of $500; the second place winner will
receive a cash award of $400, and the third place winner receiving a $300 cash award. Three students will be selected to present their papers at the conference. The oral presentation will determine the first, second and the third place winner. Limited funding is available for lodging and travel costs. A complimentary registration for the conference will be provided
for finalists.

Send an electronic copy of your paper in word doc by July 1, 2013 to:
