YalofSPA Exchange EditorBruce L. SmithPublic Affairs DirectorDear Fellow SPA Members:On behalf of the Board of Trustees of the Society for Personality Assessment (SPA), I inviteyou to join us March 24-28, 2010 for our annual Scientific Exchange and Workshops at thebeautiful Fairmont Hotel in San Jose, CA.Radhika Krishnamurthy, our President-Elect and Program Chair, and Ginger Calloway andher CE Committee have worked hard to select and arrange an excellent program. Ourtheme for 2010 is “Personality Assessment in Context.” The focus on context is intended tohighlight how we shape and adapt our theories, skills, and tools of personality assessment,and communicate our findings in ways that are well suited to the particular populations,audiences, settings, referral questions, and goals with which we are working.Throughout several days of attending the meetings and workshops in San Jose, you’ll, ofcourse, be able to keep up to date on the very latest ideas, instruments, and developments inyour areas of particular interest or expertise. You can also hobnob with familiar faces andfamous names at interest group lunches, consultation sessions, poster sessions, book signings,and receptions (not to mention our famously lively hallways). But we also encourage you tostretch a little. Learn something about an assessment technique you’ve never used before,try sitting in on a theoretical discussion with people of the ‘wrong’ orientation, find out howyour favorite instruments can be adapted to novel settings, check out innovations in teachingand research, have lunch and maybe plan a joint project or exchange of ideas with a colleaguefrom the other side of the world.No matter how you approach the meeting, I can guarantee that you’ll have some difficultchoices to make. Apart from our plenary sessions designed to be of interest to everyone,such as the Master Lectures by John Briere and Phil Erdberg, there may be 5 or moreworthwhile things to do at any given time—case discussions, presentations of research inprogress, roundtables on the future of practice, symposia on controversial topics. We’llprovide labels and mix up the topics to help you track your major interests throughoutthe conference; but any way you slice it, you’ll often find yourself wishing you could be intwo places at once.For in-depth coverage of topics of special interest, make sure you sign up for a workshopor two. In addition to a number that are suitable for all levels of experience, we’re goingto offer a few that are designed specifically for advanced audiences. We’ll have workshopsby John Briere, Phil Erdberg, Ronald Ganellen, Corine de Ruiter, Jeffrey Younggren,Arnold Bruhn, Christopher Hopwood, Sharon Rae Jenkins, Antoinette Thomas, BarryRitzler, Anthony Sciara, Reid Meloy, Mark Blais, David Streiner, Tad Gorske, DianeEngelman, Ellen Krantz, Richard Lewak, Robin Deutsch, Stephen Finn, Deborah Tharinger,Pamela Schaber, Jay Flens, Margaret Lee, Robert Kaufman, Nancy Olesen, MarjorieGans Walters, Steve Friedlander, John Sikorski, Graeme Hanson, and me.Come to San Jose and sharpen your skills, challenge your settled notions, feed yourcuriosity, widen your horizons, make new friends. Visit our website (www.personality.org)to register and try to make your hotel reservations early. Early registration will get youthe lowest registration fees and also ensure a hotel room in the deeply discounted blockthat we are holding for our attendees. To be sure there’s room for you in the workshopsof your choice, try to register for them, too, as soon as possible. This registration brochurelists all of the workshops, paper sessions, symposia, roundtables, and case presentationsscheduled for the meeting. A more detailed Program Book will be available online throughour web page after January 1, 2010. All registrants will receive a copy of the Program Book intheir registration packets.I look forward to seeing you in March in San Jose, CA.Christopher HopwoodPresident, SPAGSRobert E.
