Emotion

The SPSP Emotion Preconference is an interdisciplinary event that brings together social and personality scientists interested in affective science—a subject spanning any psychological process in which emotion plays a role, from decision-making and outgroup bias to close relationships and mental health. Held every year since 2006, this preconference is an opportunity to learn about cutting-edge work across a wide range of domains and engage in fruitful scholarly exchange. The program prioritizes diverse perspectives and includes a series of talks by invited distinguished speakers as well as submitted flash talks and a poster session, which provide opportunities for trainees and early investigators to showcase their work. In particular, this year’s program includes invited talks from an exciting line-up of speakers highlighting affective science across a wide range of domains in psychology including close relationships, development, emotion regulation, health, and neuroscience.

This will be a full-day, in-person preconference, beginning with breakfast at 7:30 AM.
