Abstract
[The Eastern Psychological Association (EPA) held its 65th annual meeting in 1994. The numbering of those meetings began with a meeting of the New York Branch of the American Psychological Association in 1930, but the roots of the EPA are much deeper, beginning with the formation of the New York Branch in 1903. The branch began as a forum for the exchange of scientific information in psychology in the New York City area. It was initially successful, meeting three times per year for a one‐day program, and featured a Who's Who of speakers delivering some of the most important papers in the history of American psychology. After World War I its character, like that of psychology, began to change as the program reflected the growth in applied psychology and the membership began to be dominated by nonpsychologists. Its reorganization in 1930 restored control of the branch to university‐based psychologists and reestablished the scientific goals that characterize the EPA today.]
