SCIENTIFIC OBJECTIVES: To gain an increased understanding of the ways in
which personality and situational determinants of motivation combine to
influence motivational states, and how these motivational states in turn affect
cognitive processes to determine cognitive performance.
The purpose of this Society is to foster research on individual differences in:
- temperament,
- intelligence,
- attitudes, and
- abilities.
The aims of the Society are:
- to investigate the major dimensions of individual differences in the context of:
experimental,
- physiological,
- pharmacological,
- clinical,
- medical,
- genetical,
- statistical, and
- social psychology.
- to seek the determinants, causes and concomitants of individual differences, using
concepts derived from these disciplines.
To promote this purpose, the Society produces scientific papers and organizes scientific
meetings to discuss and exchange information and ideas relevant to the measurement,
structure, dynamics and biological bases of individual differences.
Personality and Individual Differences is the official journal of the Society.
