Abstract
Personality Science: Exploring Boldly, Integrating Creatively
Highlights
Exploring the frontiers of personality science poses major challenges
If psychology is a hub science personality psychology has been a hub within a hub, the central nexus through which the diverse processes of human behavior come into common focus
An even more expansive and demanding task presents itself for personality science – to explore boldly and integrate creatively in theory, methods, applications, and institution building
Summary
Exploring the frontiers of personality science poses major challenges. Perhaps the most central of these is the enduring task of personality psychology of providing the integrative center for psychology (Little, 1972, 2005; Revelle, 2008). Psychology, too, has a key integrative function (Cleeremans, 2010).
