General information

Every other year a two-day KLI conference is organized in which all KLI faculty and Ph.D. students can participate. The next KLI conference will be organized on April 15 and 16, 2010 in conference centre Woudschoten in Zeist.

Conference chair

The Program Chair of this conference is dr. Wilco W. van Dijk from Leiden University.

Keynote speakers

Keynote speakers of this conference are prof.dr. Evert van de Vliert (University of Groningen), prof.dr. Kip Williams (Purdue University, U.S.A.) and prof.dr. Eveline Crone (Leiden University).

Conference themes

The conference will be organized around five topics that have been central in social and organizational psychology in the previous couple of years.

1. “Why Morality Matters”
Chair: Belle Derks (Leiden University) and Lotte van Dillen (Leiden University)
2. “Desiring Control and Controlling Our Desires: The Psychology of Regulation and Control”
Chair: Frenk van Harreveld (University of Amsterdam) and Guido van Koningsbruggen (Utrecht University)
3. “Living Apart Together? Cultural and "Natural" Explanation of Human Behavior in Social Psychology”
Chair: Marielle Stel (Utrecht University) and Martijn van Zomeren (University of Groningen)
4. “The influence of Time: Individual and social determinants in temporal processes”
Chair: Kai Jonas (University of Amsterdam) and Michael Vliek (University of Amsterdam)
5. “Influence and motivated economic behavior”
Chair: Kai Jonas (University of Amsterdam) and Michael Vliek (University of Amsterdam)

In each conference theme, speakers from all tracks of the KLI will present their research. The goal of this overarching approach is to stimulate fruitful discussions and exchanges that bridge the different tracks and shed new light on the topics by combining and integrating perspectives from different levels of analysis (i.e., intrapersonal, interpersonal, group and organization, and intergroup).

Best Paper Award

As usual the Best Paper Award for KLI PhD students will be awarded to the winner, who will present his or her paper.
