The 97th annual meeting of the Midwestern Psychological Association is almost here! We anticipate this will be our largest conference ever with more than 3800 people attending!

Once again, the venue for the 2025 conference is the beautiful Palmer House Hilton, in Chicago, IL. Students, scholars, practitioners, and professionals will come to share their research, make new friends, and connect with psychological scientists from across the Midwest and the world.

The MPA program in 2025 will include over 2200 research presentations from a broad range of disciplines and feature several keynote addresses and invited methodology workshops. MPA will also host (as always) the meetings of Psi Chi (the psychology honor society for undergraduates), the Society for the Teaching of Psychology, and the Society for Community Research and Action.

About the Conference

The purpose of the MPA annual meeting is to share research across all areas of psychology.

The annual meeting features invited addresses and talks from leading psychologists across the United States, papers and posters addressing a wide range of topics in current psychological science, workshops addressing the teaching of psychology, research methods, and statistics, and discussion groups, roundtables, and social events where members can share ideas and interests.

The annual meeting is open to psychologists, students, and members of the public.
