DESCRIPTION:Psychological science increasingly values transparency\, inclus
 ivity\, accessibility\, rigor\, and “real-world” impact\, yet less att
 ention focuses on how writing practices and conceptions of “academic wri
 ting” shape who can access\, interpret\, and use our work. This lightnin
 g talk argues that narrative academic writing—writing that resembles sto
 rytelling and includes creative writing elements\, authorial voice\, and r
 eader orientation—functions as an underutilized tool for improving inclu
 sivity\, integration\, and impact in psychological science. I discuss how 
 conventional stylistic norms and mainstream writing and publishing notions
  (e.g.\, length limits\, rigid formatting) may obscure theoretical contrib
 utions\, limit interdisciplinary uptake\, undermine linguistic diversity a
 nd inclusivity\, and disadvantage scholars trained outside dominant academ
 ic cultures. Using diverse sources\, I illustrate how narrative writing ca
 n be employed across academic contexts and identities to improve translati
 onal and enhance scientific rigor and reach. The diverse implications of r
 esisting innovation and maintaining the status quo in scholarly communicat
 ion are also discussed.

DESCRIPTION:AI is a sophisticated\, capable\, and widely used tool. Across 
 academic contexts\, questions and concerns over the implications of widesp
 read\, often undisclosed AI adoption throughout psychological science and 
 training have emerged\, including concerns about ethical use\, data privac
 y\, authorship\, references and citational justice\, and deskilling and un
 learning. Proponents advocate for more nuanced\, open-minded\, and inclusi
 ve conversations around AI\, particularly situating AI as a “tool” and
  focused on how psychological science can meaningfully utilize and leverag
 e AI advancements to enhance psychological science. As AI use is a polariz
 ing yet rapidly evolving and increasingly used entity\, this unconference 
 creates space for nuanced discussion about a) advancements and diverse imp
 lementations of different AI types within and across academia (e.g.\, agen
 tic and generative AI)\, b) how advancements and uses are reshaping academ
 ia (e.g.\, teaching/learning\, research\, publishing\, accessibility\, DEI
 \, etc.)\, and c) future directions in the interplay between AI and academ
 ia.
