Program
In addition to celebrating 25 years of ARP, the biennial conference will showcase the diverse, innovative, and rigorous research being conducted in personality science. The biennial meeting will feature programming via symposia, single presenter, idea/data blitzes, posters, and hack-a-thon sessions, along with a 25th Anniversary Symposium, an invited symposium sponsored by the European Association for Personality Psychology (EAPP), and award talks in honor of recent winners of the Emerging Scholar, Tanaka Dissertation, Early Career, and Murray-Helson awards. The 2025 program not only provides opportunities to learn about the work being conducted in all corners of the field but also promotes scholarly discourse. NEW offerings for the program this year include events aimed at promoting social connection among new and returning attendees. More information is available on the Program page.
