About

Society of Multivariate Experimental Psychology (SMEP)

The Society of Multivariate Experimental Psychology was founded in 1960 as an organization of researchers interested in multivariate quantitative methods and their application to substantive problems in psychology and related fields. Many distinguished scientists in this field have been active members of SMEP. The society was founded as a small elective body in order to facilitate high level research as well as intensive interaction among members. A key component of our mission is to provide a welcoming community of scholars and to promote diversity across gender, sexual identity, and race/ethnicity in the community of quantitative psychology.

As a scientific society, we adhere to the principle that the diversity of ideas is enhanced through the diversity in our membership. More
