Award Information
One to five awards of $5000 will be awarded to the best proposal(s) based on ISMS budget and
the number of submissions each year. A separate award of $5000 will be awarded to the best
proposal on emerging markets.
Award Committee
The Dissertation Proposal Competition Committee is chaired by the VP Education of

Call for Workshop Proposals - 2016 Invitational Choice Symposium Lake Louise, Alberta
Call for Workshop Proposals
10th Triennial Invitational Choice Symposium
May 14-17, 2016
Lake Louise, Alberta, Canada
www.choicesymposium.com
The 10th Triennial Invitational Choice Symposium will be hosted by the University of Alberta School of
Business in May of 2016. It will be co-chaired by Gerald Häubl and Peter Popkowski Leszczyc. The event
will begin with a welcome reception and dinner in the evening of Saturday, May 14, and conclude with a
dinner and social event in the evening of Tuesday, May 17. It will be held at the Fairmont Chateau Lake
Louise located in Alberta’s Banff National Park in the heart of the Canadian Rockies.
The purpose of the Triennial Invitational Choice Symposium is to provide a forum for in-depth
interaction among leading scholars (from various scientific disciplines) in the domains of human choice
behavior and decision making, broadly defined. The Choice Symposium is designed to facilitate
discourse that will lead to advances both in our theoretical/substantive understanding of how people
make choices and in the methods for studying choice behavior. The Symposium entails a number of
parallel workshops on specific, well-defined themes. Each of the workshops is (a) organized by two or
three thought leaders on a theme that they propose and (b) attended by about 10-12 additional
participants who are invited by the workshop organizers.
Scholars who are interested in organizing a workshop on a specific theme for the 2016 Choice
Symposium may submit a proposal by September 15, 2015 (see below for details). Priority will be given
to workshop proposals that focus on topics that are of broad relevance and that span multiple academic
disciplines. Workshop organizers are responsible for recruiting a roster of participants for their proposed
session. Ideally, this group will include individuals with diverse backgrounds and from a variety of
disciplines. Workshop participants should be scholars who have made significant contributions to the
topic area or who, based on their work in cognate or related areas, can be expected to make such
contributions in the future.
The co-organizers of accepted workshops develop an agenda for their workshop sessions prior to the
Symposium. All participants are expected to attend the entire event and actively participate in the
discussions in their workshop. Each workshop group produces a brief report summarizing its discussions.
These reports will be made available to all Choice Symposium attendees to facilitate the sharing of ideas
and insights across workshops. Moreover, the Symposium co-chairs will explore the possibility of coediting a special issue of a journal (Marketing Letters) featuring a collection of short review/position
papers based on some of the workshops.
Workshop proposals should include the following:

The theme of the proposed workshop.

The names of the workshop co-organizers (no more than 4), along with their affiliations
and contact information.

A description of the proposed workshop theme, including a brief characterization of the
current state of knowledge in the relevant domain(s), as well as a vision statement
outlining how the workshop is expected to stimulate, and set the course for, important
new research related to the theme. (This part must not exceed 400 words in length.)

A (short) list of key references.

A list of workshop participants, along with their affiliations and contact information, as
well as an indication of who has already committed to attending the Symposium if the
workshop proposal is accepted. This list should include at least 8 and no more than 13
individuals (not counting the workshop co-organizers).
Workshop proposals must be submitted (in PDF format) to choicesymposium@gmail.com by September
15, 2015.
Submitted workshop proposals will be reviewed and evaluated by members of the Program Committee
(see below). Decisions about acceptance/non-acceptance will be based on the input from the Program
Committee, and communicated to the corresponding co-organizers of the workshop proposals by
November 1, 2015.
In order for an accepted workshop to be included in the Choice Symposium program, all of
its participants must register for the event by January 31, 2016.
