Biographical History
The Association for Psychological Science (APS) was founded as the American Psychological Society on August 12, 1988 with a mission of advancing scientific psychology and its representation as a science on the national level. In 1987, the Assembly for Scientific and Applied Psychology, a group of 450 scientifically-oriented psychologists, voted to found the American Psychological Society.
Charles Kiesler was elected the first president and Alan Kraut was the first Executive Director. In 1988, the Society began publishing its newsletter, the Observer, and the following year, the first annual APS convention was held in Virginia. In 1992, APS began publishing its first peer-reviewed journal, Current Directions in Psychological Science. The Association now also publishes two other journals: Perspectives on Psychological Science and Psychological Science in the Public Interest. In 2006, the American Psychological Society changed its name to the Association for Psychological Science to reflect its international scope as well as its scientific orientation.
