Presenter Instructions
Spoken presentations at WT&D 2025 are in 20 minute slots, which will include time for each presentation and for questions. A laptop and projector will be available in the room. Presenters will be contacted with more details prior to the conference.
Also, poster boards will be 30×40 inches and can be configured vertically or horizontally as you wish (but horizontally would probably be more stable)! We highly recommend presenting results using graphs (with statistics included to support conclusions) and displaying examples of stimuli. To clarify manipulations, it is helpful to present the contrast between instructions or features of the task that varied across conditions.

In order to facilitate a safe environment for all guests, ST&D has adopted a meeting conduct policy. This policy will apply to all attendees.
