Dear Colleagues,
In light of the exceptional circumstances we are experiencing due to the Covid-19 pandemic, ACIPE and the Organizing Committee of the 10th CIPE have taken the decision to postpone the 10th International Conference of Psychology and Education to June 17, 18 and 19, 2021.
We sincerely apologise for the inconvenience this change may cause, but the consequences of the coronavirus have affected every one of us in every walk of life. We only hope that in 2021 the Conference can be held and full guarantees for health and well-being can be given, enabling us to enjoy this event in Cordoba.
It has not been an easy decision to make and we have had to analyse carefully all aspects of the current situation and possible future scenarios: our number one priority has always been to safeguard the health of every single person attending the Conference.
Up to now, we have evaluated over 600 abstracts, and the deadline is still open for sending extended abstracts which could be published in the journals which are collaborating with the Conference. We have also prepared an exciting social program and arranged different accommodation and travel options. All of this will be kept on hold for exactly one year, and nothing would please us more than to hear that you understand the situation and are willing to taking part in CIPE in 2021. Please take note of the following organizational details:
- Participants who have already registered and paid their registration fee and who intend to participate in the Conference in 2021: no further action is needed.
- Participants whose abstract has been accepted but have not yet paid the registration fee: can do so up until December 15, 2020 at the current reduced rate.
- Participants who have registered or sent an abstract and will not be able to attend on this new date: please let us know before December 15, 2020. After this date, the registration fee cannot be refunded.
- New participants: a new submission period for abstracts will open in January 2021 for those who wish to participate in the 10th
We would like to inform you that all the plenary speakers and expert panellists have confirmed that they will attend from June 17 to 19, 2021. These are exactly the same dates as the original ones, but one year later, and so the days and times initially assigned for the whole scientific and social program will remain unchanged.
If you have already bought your tickets to travel, we suggest you contact the travel company directly and ask to change the dates of your trip to next year.
As regards accommodation, we are currently negotiating special offers for next year with the hotels contracted by the Conference. If you have made a reservation but not paid yet, this booking will be automatically cancelled, but you will be able to book your rooms again later. If you have booked and already paid for your accommodation, please send an email to secretary@cipe2020.com and the Technical Secretariat of the Conference will do their utmost to negotiate the most favourable conditions to postpone the booking.
As soon as possible, all the information on hotel reservations for 2021 will be made available on the website.
If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact us at secretary@cipe2020.com
We would sincerely like to thank everyone for their understanding. We hope that by working together and with the help of everyone’s solidarity, we will be able to overcome this situation as soon as possible. We very much look forward to seeing everyone eventually in Cordoba in 2021.
Kind regards,
Eva Romera, President of the 10th CIPE
Juan Fernández, President of ACIPE
Charo Ortega, President of the Scientific Committee
Carmen Viejo and Izabela Zych, Secretaries of the 10th CIPE
Welcome President of ACIPE

ACIPE (The Scientific Association of Psychology and Education) is holding its 10th International Conference of Psychology and Education in the beautiful, culturally-rich city of Cordoba (Spain). In the past, we have always had large numbers of participants (around a thousand) interested in and registered for the conferencees, and occasionally this number was much higher. This makes us both very grateful and increasingly aware of the responsibility of striving to keep up our high standards, from both an academic and professional points of view, as well as in the organization of the event. We owe this to all the participants, for their fidelity, collaboration and appreciation for this academic and social event run by our Association.

We owe this to all the participants, for their fidelity, collaboration and appreciation for this academic and social event run by our Association.
Up to now, one single person has been responsible for organizing the conference. For this year’s conference, to the impressive record of research and teaching experience of Rosario Ortega, (Professor of Educational Psychology who is one of the leading national and international researcher in the field), we have decided to add the skills of her departmental colleague, Dr Romera. She is a recognised scholar who contributed greatly to the field of Developmental and Educational Psychology, going by the significant contributions she has published so far, which are sure to go from strength to strength in the future as she delves further into this field.
In this year’s conference, as always (and the Programme bears faithful testimony to this), we will attempt to address, together, a number of current topics of academic and professional interest, within the broad framework of Psychology and Education. To achieve this, we have the pleasure to welcome leading researchers, teachers and professionals from all over Spain, other neighbouring countries in Europe and globally (such as United States or Canada), in addition to those countries which are related to us by a common language (Latin America).
Although a certain degree of preference must be given to members of ACIPE, our conference, like all the others held by this Association, which is a part of COSCE (Confederation of Scientific Societies of Spain), is aimed at and designed for the benefit of everyone who is interested in Psychology and Education, from undergraduate and postgraduate students to working professionals or those who work as full-time teachers or researchers. Over the three days of the conference, we want to encourage the establishment of genuine teaching and learning communities. Of course, there will also be time to strengthen bonds of friendships between colleagues and enjoy the charms and attractions of Cordoba and the surrounding area.
We look forward to welcoming you to the conference, and sincerely hope that it will live up to, or even exceed, your expectations. I am looking forward to seeing you soon!
Welcome President of the Conference

It gives us great pleasure to invite you to the 10th International Conference of Psychology and Education to be held in Cordoba in June 2021. After the resounding success of previous Conferencees, the Scientific Association of Psychology and Education (ACIPE, in Spanish) has promoted this new opportunity for an academic and professional meeting to exchange views, ideas, experiences and advances from the latest research in the fields of Psychology and Education.
The slogan of this Conference: "From Neural to Social Networks: Wellbeing and Convivencia", takes as its starting point the neuro-psychological viewpoint which emerged from the 2018 Logroño Conference.

The slogan of this Conference: "From Neural to Social Networks: Wellbeing and Convivencia", takes as its starting point the neuro-psychological viewpoint which emerged from the 2018 Logroño Conference and aims to delve deeper in the broad domain of the social, emotional and moral world of the complex human network, which is at the core of school and family convivencia, on which the process of education and socializing is based. The support provided by the academic and professional community for ACIPE in its last few Conferencees and its consolidation as a scientific society have allowed us to build up a sizeable Scientific Support Network to back up this Conference. The Scientific Committee is presided by Rosario Ortega Ruiz, and is made up of a team of leading national and international researchers. We have organised an attractive program featuring prestigious guest speakers and a wide range of scientific activities including conferences, panels of experts, invited symposia, oral communications and posters. The six thematic areas are aimed at offering a response to current issues being discussed by researchers in Educational Psychology: (1) Neuropsychology. Cognition and socialization; (2) Educational Psychology. Guidance, intervention and assessment; (3) Affective factors and social life in the classroom: convivencia in schools; (4) Cyberbehaviour: from e-learning to social networks; (5) Gender, sexuality and violence; and (6) Family, education and society. Through these topics, we would be delighted to receive the scientific and professional community members who aim to advance knowledge in psychology and education though their contributions to the Conference in Córdoba.
Córdoba is a friendly, welcoming city, with a blend of history, culture and tradition, backed up by efficient services and a delicious local cuisine. The City of the Three Cultures is an ideal setting in which to share, learn, enjoy, imagine and create knowledge, professional networks and bonds of friendship. In our exciting social program, we will show you the charming courtyards brimming with flowers known as the ‘patios’, the narrow winding streets with their surprising individual details, the impressive sights of the city, and above all, the kind-heartedness and great wisdom enshrined in the historical traditions of this city. Be ready to present your work in historic buildings, with over five centuries of history, situated in the heart of the Jewish quarter.
We are looking forward to welcoming you to Córdoba. All our enthusiasm and commitment has gone towards helping you to enjoy the 10th CIPE and your stay in this charming city.
