- Is the title of abstract and keywords relevant to the symposium?
- Is the abstract focused on the theme or subthemes?
- How well does the abstract articulate the purpose and objectives?
- How well does the abstract describe the study design/methodology of the research? (NA for conceptual papers)
- How well are the results and findings discussed in the abstract?
- How well does the abstract discuss conclusions and recommendations of the research?
- Is the take away message clear? (applicable to Posters, Tutorials and Workshop sessions)
