Oral presentations
Abstracts to be considered for an oral presentation must be received by Friday, January 31,1993.

Reports of organized research studies will be favored for oral presentation. The oral presentations will be on Tuesday, August 10 and will be approximately 25 minutes in length.
Members of AREA’S Board of Directors and the ISA staff will evaluate the abstracts on these five criteria: overall quality and amount of work, appropriateness of topic, well-defined focus, practical applications of the material, and timeliness and attractiveness of the topic to a diverse audience. Abstracts accepted, but not selected as oral presentations will be invited as poster presentations.
