2nd World Conference on Personality
Considering the topics of the keynote speakers, the invited symposia, and quite a few of the submitted abstracts, the second world conference on personality promises to inform on exciting turning points in the field. The opening address "rethinking personality psychology" by Robert Hogan is followed by new perspectives on central issues, such as genetics of intelligence, the role of personality in cultural encounters, meaning in life related to personality, the evolution of sexual morality, and many other fascinating views and developments in the lively filed of personality.
The deadline for submission of abstracts (posters, papers, symposia) has silently been moved up to half of November, which will be the date where we start putting the actual program together. After that date submissions might still be possible, but it will be increasingly more difficult to squeeze new abstracts into the program until the abstract book is finalized.
The different continents are already well-represented with abstracts from countries such as China, Japan, Australia, South Africa, Nigeria, many European countries, Brazil, USA, and Canada.
Don't miss out on this personality defining conference!!
Visa
For people from certain countries (for example the USA and Canada) it is important to be aware that visas are necessary, and that it may sometimes take some time to obtain one. Information on the visas requirements per country can for example be found here: http://chicago.itamaraty.gov.br/en-us/visa_requirements_by_country.xml.
If you do require a visa, a tourist visa will suffice for attending the conference
We are looking forward to welcome you the second world conference on personality,
Boele De Raad
