An annotated index of files on the PMC/ISSID server
A continously growing set of pages meant to guide those interested in personality theory and research to the current personality research literature. Although some of the readings are available on-line, all should be available from most university libraries. Information about scholarly societies and graduate training programs in personality is provided for those interested in pursuing further study in personality theory. Course syllabi from personality theory and research courses are being added gradually. Links to active researchers and personality laboratories are added when found (and as time allows).
A set of pages developed by Scott Acton. How do people tend to think, feel, and behave--and what causes these tendencies? These are the questions that occupy personality theorists and researchers.
This website deals with scientific research programs in personality. They are offered as candidates for the title "great ideas"; whether they are indeed great remains an open question.
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.
The SCIENTIFIC OBJECTIVES of the Personality, Motivation and Cognition (PMC) lab are to gain an increased understanding of the ways in

cognitive processes to determine cognitive performance.
