About MPA and Future Dates

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.

Three affiliate groups also present as part of MPA. Those include Psi Chi, The Society for Teaching Psychology, and The Society for Community Research and Action.

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

We are excited to for the 98th annual meeting of MPA, which will be held during April 16-18, 2026. Share your research, make new friends, and connect with psychological scientists from across the Midwest and the world. Please see the 2026 MPA Conference webpage.
