SIOP 2017: Schedule Planning for IO Psychology Technology

2017 April 18

Every year, I post some screenshots of my insane schedule for seeing all of the technology-related content at SIOP.  Well, it’s finally happened. I can’t. There’s too much. In the past, I might miss a couple of double-booked sessions, but this year, two things happened:

  1. The technology program itself ballooned which means overlaps are everywhere. You can read more about its composition in this TIP article, but in short, there are about 40 sessions or posters on the program that specified technology as one of their core categories. This doesn’t even include people who didn’t set their category to technology despite talking heavily about technology.  Frankly, within the categories I identify below – gaming & gamification, UIT & mobile testing, adapting I/O to future technology, and methodology & measurement – you could have a quite full conference only attending presentations within that category!
  2. I am personally involved in 13 different events this year, so I barely have time to attend my own presentations!

So without further ado, here is a list of things to see and when/where to see them.

Note 1. Bolded sessions are ones my lab or I am involved in.

Note 2. Occasionally you’ll see a session marked (MP).  Almost all tech sessions were listed in the SIOP program as “mixed audience,” and only one (a poster in the Innovation session 123) was listed “mostly academic.”  The ones marked “mostly practitioner” are marked here as “MP.”

Note 3. If you want to meet up with me for any reason and haven’t scheduled a time yet, my schedule is almost booked solid, but I will be wandering around the Technology and Innovation Poster Session at 8:30AM on Friday, and I will probably get there a little early. My lab and I have four posters in the session. Drop by!
