Abstract

The APA Awards for Distinguished Scientific Early Career Contributions to Psychology recognize psychologists who have demonstrated excellence early in their careers and have held a doctoral degree for no more than 9 years. One of the 2019 award winners is Wiebke Bleidorn "for innovative work on when and why personality changes in adulthood. Wiebke Bleidorn's research has helped uncover the mechanisms-both biological and sociocultural- that underlie personality stability and change. Through the creative use of sophisticated methods, she has helped resolve competing theoretical models of personality change. Using longitudinal, cross-cultural, and behavioral genetic designs, her research has disentangled the more universal effects of biological maturation from cultural influences and life experiences on personality development."
