The 20th Annual Convention will be held May 22-25, 2008,
in Chicago, IL. Program highlights can be found on our Web site at

APS welcomes and encourages you to take part in our three themed
programs; specifically,
Learning Competitiveness and Real-World Achievement.
This symposium includes research in cognitive, educational, social
and organizational psychology along with cutting edge presentations
on learning and performance at all levels. It addresses how
learning, achievement, motivation and emotions interact with
learning and performance processes producing failure or success; and
promoting cooperation or competition. Find out more at:
