    CALL FOR SUBMISSIONS:  AOM PDW TRUST WORKSHOP:  A Feedback Opportunity for Empirical Work-in-Progress (sponsored by BPS).

    Time and Place:  Friday August 3, 2007 3:30-5:30 Philadelphia Marriott, Room 407

    Description: In this PDW we will provide some coaching, guidance, and feedback to scholars who are currently doing research on trust.  We will lead a discussion on work-in-progress papers that have been selected through a competitive process.    Each work-in-progress paper will be grouped with others that are "similar" in either topic or methodology.  One member of the expert panel will be assigned to each group and provide comments and recommendations to each participant on how to further improve their paper.  In addition, each participant will be assigned one paper from their group to comment on.  Following the focused discussion in groups the entire workshop will reconvene to share insights and observations.  Preceding this PDW, we will also offer another PDW:  Raising the Bar on Trust Research: Comments, Critiques, and Counsel on Evolving Standards for Empirical Work.  In this PDW the expert panel will discuss that standards for trust research are evolving and will necessarily change how future research will need be conducted in order to make a valuable contribution to the literature.  This PDW is open.

    Facilitators: 
    Africa Arino (IESE)
    Steven Currall (UCL & LBS)
    Bill McEvily (U Toronto, organizer)

    Submission Requirements:  Submissions are due May 31, 2007, should be 10 – 25 pages, and consist of empirical work targeted to research journals.  Send submission (as an attachment) to lpoppo@vt.edu.  In the SUBJECT header write: PDW submission.  Also, place a brief description of your paper in the email.
