Diversity
Paper Sessions
Paper Sessions provide an opportunity for researchers to present early-stage or more developed papers in an open dialogue setting followed by a discussion period with audience members. We will continue the tradition of a workshop-style presentation with no discussants.
Panel Session
Panel Sessions focus on a topic of interest, relevance, or a research area. If you have an idea for a panel discussion and would like to moderate that panel, submit your proposed topic, panel members and brief description (up to 300 words).
Emerging Research Sessions
We invite proposals to share your research during our Research Forum session (poster session). Submissions should include your poster title and a summary of your poster presentation. The poster session submission system will not accept papers. Emerging Research Sessions are designed to allow scholars (especially junior faculty and doctoral students) to submit proposals and receive feedback on the theory and/or research design prior to collecting data. Proposals in this category should have clearly stated research question(s), a well-developed theory, and hypotheses based on the relevant literature in the area (an expanded Kinney 3-Paragraph model). Emerging research proposals should not exceed five (5) double-spaced pages. Proposals can have an academic, practitioner or pedagogical focus.
Doctoral Student Road Paper Session
This session will provide an opportunity for doctoral students to prepare for job talks. Students should, at minimum, have an early draft of their paper and some preliminary results and conclusions. Prior participants in this session commented that the feedback was both constructive and beneficial to improving their papers. Presenting at the Diversity Section Meeting allows for early outside feedback prior to job talks.

All types of articles, including empirical, theoretical, case studies, autobiographical, or opinion pieces considered. We welcome early-stage projects as well as journal-ready work, making this an ideal way to get feedback on work early in its development. We also invite reviewers to volunteer to evaluate submitted manuscripts (reviewers must perform a journal-quality review and be willing to present their review if their reviewed manuscript is accepted for presentation).

The poster session submission system will not accept papers. We welcome accounting education-related research papers, case studies, teaching notes, or commentaries as well as research proposals (up to data collection).
