In the past two decades, the cutting edge of social and personality psychological research has become significantly more complex in theory, methodology, and statistics. These scientific advances are due, at least in part, to increasingly connected and diverse academic and professional networks amongst faculty. This project will support the continuation and extension of the highly successful program of Summer Institutes in Social and Personality Psychology. Graduate students from social psychology and personality graduate programs attend the advanced two-week intensive training program, led by the best scholars in the field. The summer training institute helps to ensure that the training of graduate students sustains advances and innovations in these fields. This training institute is helpful for advancing the field and also for broadening the opportunity for training of graduate students who, although are well-trained in the content and methods represented at their institutions, they may not have intensive access to scholars in other areas of the fields of Social and Personality Psychology. Evaluation of the previous training institutes reveals that graduate students who participate are successful in obtaining academic positions, peer-reviewed publications and funding for their research. Further, affording graduate students with cutting-edge theoretical and methodological training enhances their ability to participate in interdisciplinary and international collaborations, which are becoming increasingly important across all of science. This project will support the continuation of the highly successful program of Summer Institutes in Social and Personality Psychology (SISPP). Scheduled every two years, the SISPP provides an opportunity for approximately 80 advanced graduate students in social and personality psychology Ph.D. programs to obtain intensive experience and instruction into cutting-edge theories, research, and methods. Graduate programs have strengths in different areas, and preference for attendance is given to students whose home institution does not offer strengths in the topics covered during a particular Summer Institute. SISPP has been successful in fostering diversity in the field, both in terms of promoting the careers of members of historically underrepresented groups and enhancing the graduate training of students from programs with different emphases and resources. SISPP has also been successful in fostering research collaboration and communication networks among individuals from different laboratories, universities, regions, and nations, and creating a collaborative scholarly community for a new generation of researchers. These diversifying experiences enabled by SISPP are critical for fostering creativity, innovation, and flexible scientific practices in knowledge and for expanding social and personality psychology's scientific potential to provide solutions for important societal problems.

在过去的二十年里，社会和人格心理学研究的前沿在理论、方法和统计上变得更加复杂。这些科学进步是由于，至少在一定程度上，越来越多的教师之间的连接和多样化的学术和专业网络。该项目将支持社会和人格心理学暑期学院非常成功的计划的延续和扩展。社会心理学和人格研究生课程的研究生参加由该领域最好的学者领导的为期两周的高级强化培训课程。暑期培训学院有助于确保研究生的培训保持这些领域的进步和创新。该培训机构有助于推动该领域的发展，并扩大研究生的培训机会，尽管他们在其机构的内容和方法方面训练有素，但他们可能无法深入接触社会和人格心理学其他领域的学者。对以前培训机构的评估表明，参加培训的研究生成功地获得了学术职位、同行评审的出版物和研究资金。 此外，为研究生提供前沿的理论和方法培训，提高了他们参与跨学科和国际合作的能力，这在所有科学领域都变得越来越重要。 该项目将支持社会和人格心理学暑期学院（SISPP）非常成功的计划的延续。每两年安排一次，SISPP为大约80名社会和人格心理学博士的高级研究生提供机会。计划，以获得密集的经验和指导到尖端的理论，研究和方法。研究生课程在不同的领域有优势，优先考虑参加的学生，他们的家乡机构不提供在特定的暑期研究所涵盖的主题的优势。SISPP已经成功地促进了该领域的多样性，无论是在促进历史上代表性不足的群体的成员的职业生涯，并加强从具有不同的重点和资源的方案的学生的研究生培训。SISPP还成功地促进了来自不同实验室，大学，地区和国家的个人之间的研究合作和交流网络，并为新一代研究人员创建了一个合作的学术社区。这些由SISPP实现的多样化体验对于促进创造力，创新和灵活的科学实践知识以及扩大社会和人格心理学的科学潜力，为重要的社会问题提供解决方案至关重要。
