Anonymity
Abstracts should be written in a way that a reviewer cannot directly or indirectly identify authorship through the naming of an individual (i.e., therapist or service recipient), program, service, health-care provider or geographic region. Reviewers must not be able to identify authorship and therefore, abstracts received with identifying information will be returned to the author and may result in disqualification of the submission.
References
If references are included in the abstract, a reference list must be provided in the Reference List field. References must be used sparingly (e.g. when discussing a specific approach or model) and must use the APA style. Citations included in the body of the abstract will be included in the 250 word limit. The reference list will not be counted in the 250 word limit.
