Bergren Forum - Bob Maiden, "A Longitudinal Study: Is Personality Still Stable After All These Years?"
In the field of psychology, the issue of personality stability roils the water. Approximately 25 years ago, Steve Peterson, Myrah Caya, Bert Hayslip, Jr., and I published an article suggesting that personality changes can occur in adults. The conventional wisdom rejected our findings and claimed that "personality is generally stable in adulthood." Recent research supports our earlier finding: personality can change as people grow older. Join us, take a brief personality survey if you like, and share your thoughts.The Bergren Forum takes place every Thursday lunchtime during the semester from 12:15 pm to 1:00 pm in Nevins Theater. You're welcome to bring your own lunch. Tea and coffee will be provided.
