When Charting Outcomes of the Match says "mean number of abstracts, presentation, and publications," what counts for a presentation and abstract?

1) If I submit an abstract to a conference and present a poster does this count as an abstract and presentation?

2) If I submit an abstract to a conference and give an oral presentation (powerpoint) does this count as an abstract and presentation?

3) If my name is on the abstract for a conference but someone else presents the poster or give an oral presentation, does this only count as an abstract?

There's maybe some variability here but this is what I would do/did on my ERAS:

1. [I didn't include any posters so maybe others can guide you here--is there a poster option in eras?]
2. count just as presentation
3. if the conference publishes abstracts then you can list the abstract associated with the presentation/abstract

IMO it's legit to include both presentations/posters and manuscripts associated with the same project, but I don't think it would be looked upon favorably to count the exact same thing twice as both an abstract and a poster/presentation.
