"Bringing Social and Personality Psychology in Canada together."

Welcome! This is the website of the Social and Personality Section of the Canadian Psychological Assocation. What do we do?

The section exists to further research in Social and Personality Psychology and to foster relationships among Canadian researchers in these areas. The section organizes a one-day preconference to the annual meeting of the Canadian Psychological Association. The lineup of speakers is always stellar and the preconference offers students and faculty a smaller venue for presentation and interaction prior to the larger meeting. The section also provides awards for the best undergraduate (Kenneth Dion Award) and graduate (Brendon Gail Rule Award) submission to the annual meeting, and maintains a newsletter, website, and listserv.

We invite you to browse this website and learn more about the Section's preconference, student awards, executive, newsletter, and listserv. Those of you concerned about environmental issues will be happy to know this site relies on green energy hosting. What does this mean? In a nutshell, it means that the company we rely on to keep this website online maintains ecofriendly energy consumption practices. If you have an interest in Social or Personality Psychology, please support these activities by becoming a section member when you renew your CPA membership.

We also encourage you to attend the 73nd Annual Convention of CPA and section preconference to be held in Toronto, Ontario, in June 2011.
