Psychometric Society Meeting in Cambridge: Best Poster Prize
The Best Poster Prize for iMPS 2009 was won by Hibist Astatke for her poster ‘Testing the applicability of a theoretical model to predict ITN use in Ethiopia’.
The best poster prize is an award for the author with the best poster presentation. The criteria are
- the quality of the scientific content, and
- the quality of the presentation format.
Each participant can nominate two poster authors for the prize, using the forms that will be included in the Conference Folder. The nomination form will require the name and affiliation of the nominated author, the title of the poster presentation, the reasons for nomination, the date, and the signature of nominating person. Only nominations with full information and a signature will count.
You may not nominate someone from your own institution.
Voting procedure
The nominations must be deposited in a box at the registration desk, no later than 1.30 p.m. on Thursday, the 23rd of July.
The three nominees with the highest number of nominations are the finalists. If an author with n nominations is a finalist, all authors with n nominations will be included as a finalist, so that in principle there can be more than three finalists.
A Committee of Four (Past President, President, President-Elect and Secretary) will decide among the finalists to indicate a winner. There can be only one winner. The winner will be announced at the banquet and receives 500 USD. The other finalists will be honored by being named as finalists.
