We invite potential presenters (from academia and industry) to submit an abstract (no longer than 300 words) for peer-review. We welcome submissions from scholars (including postgraduates) in the social and behavioural sciences and media, technology and information disciplines, regardless of theoretical orientation. The deadline for submission of the abstract is Friday 3rd of July, 2015. A decision on this abstract will be made after the submission deadline and authors will be notified via e-mail soon after. Poster presentations are also welcome. Abstracts should be submitted to SNIC2015 at wlv.ac.uk<mailto:SNIC2015 at wlv.ac.uk>

Social media research; cyberbullying; online relationships/dating; individual differences in online behaviour; inequality issues in Internet use; cybertherapy and online health; gaming; cybercrime, protection and security; all aspects of cyberpsychology.
