2024 KACA-AEJMC Research Session Invitation

 

The Korean American Communication Association (KACA) invites submissions of original research papers for the 2024 AEJMC-KACA competitive research session. We encourage submissions that advance theories and understanding of various aspects of media and communication relevant to Korean and/or other Asian contexts. The AEJMC-KACA session welcomes a variety of theoretical orientations and methodological approaches. Submissions from graduate students are highly recommended as student submissions are considered a separate category.

Location: AEJMC, Philadelphia, PA

Time: August 7-11, 2024 (Eastern Time) 

 

Guidelines for All Submissions

1. Deadline

All submissions must be made no later than 11:59 p.m. Eastern Time, Monday, April 15, 2024.

 

2. Submission Categories (two categories): 

A paper may be submitted in one of the two categories: (1) open or (2) student.

* Student papers must be authored or co-authored by students ONLY (no faculty co-authors), and all student papers must have the word “STUDENT” on the title page.

 

3. Submission Types:

1) Full papers 

·   25 pages max excluding abstract, references, tables, figures, and all notes. 

 2) Extended abstracts 

·   5 pages max excluding abstract, references, tables, figures, and all notes. 

·   Extended abstracts should contain all of the same content sections and elements that would normally be used in the full paper, including the study purpose, literature review, research questions and/or hypotheses, method, expected findings and implications.

·   The main difference, however, is the length of the submission format. Extended abstracts must be at least 750 words long but no more than 1,500 words.

·   For authors considering the extended abstract option, research findings and conclusions must be shared at the conference during the presentation.

4. Paper Formatting Guideline:

·   Papers must be typed in a 12-point font, using Times New Roman, Times, or Arial. 

·   Paper text must be formatted with double line spacing with 1-inch margins on all sides of the document.

·   References may be single-spaced, with a double space between citation entries.

·   Consistent with the APA 7 style.

 * Please note that a paper may NOT be under review if submitted simultaneously:

(1) with more than one division within AEJMC, (2) with the AEJMC conference and any other conference, (3) with the AEJMC conference and any potential publication, including referred journals, book chapters, etc.

 

5. Submission Method

Please submit the files (the title/cover page file and the research paper file in MS Word or PDF format) to aejmckaca@gmail.com  

 

6. Submission Requirement, Process, and Paper Award

·    All submissions must include a separate title/cover page and an abstract with approximately 250 words. A separate title/cover page should include the following information: paper title, author name, affiliation, mailing address, email address, and phone number.

·   Author identification: Names and all information that may identify the author(s) should not appear anywhere in the research paper other than on the separate title/cover page.

·   All submissions will be blind reviewed by two or three reviewers with expertise in the area.

·   Presentation requirement:

o   Once the paper is accepted, at least one author of an accepted paper must attend the conference to present the paper.

o   Authors of accepted papers are required to forward papers to discussants and moderators prior to the conference.

·   For paper submission, authors do not need to be a member of KACA or AEJMC. However, at least one author of an accepted paper must be a member of KACA.

·   Only full papers will be considered for KACA division awards.

 

More information regarding the KACA social and the mentoring session for graduate students at KACA will be announced in subsequent announcements.
