Membership

Qualifications for membership

Our bylaws require all members to be sponsored by members of the society. This will normally happen automatically, so there is now no need to nominate sponsors.

Full Members

Creditable research done in the area of individual differences. Students (including PhD students) should not apply for full membership.

Student Members

Enrolment in an undergraduate or graduate program in psychology or other relevant areas. Student status must be certified on application or renewal by the student's Department Chair or Program Director, or by one full member of the Society.

Fees

We respectfully remind members that they need to remember to pay their membership dues every two years in order to remain members of ISSID.

The rate for full 2-year membership is £50.00. The student membership rate (for student members, including PhD students) and the reduced rate (for members with an affiliation in a country with a low or low-middle income economy, as rated by the World Bank) is £15.00. This includes:

reduced costs for conference attendance
eligibility to attend pre-conference workshops
ability to advertise and learn about research opportunities and career positions
eligibility to purchase a one-year, hard-copy subscription to Personality and Individual Differences for US $117 via ussocieties@elsevier.com
we are actively exploring ways of facilitating networking, collaboration, communication etc. between members, and other member benefits.

Membership fees are non-refundable.

Those who have been members for 15 years or more and who are aged 65+ can become emeritus members for life on application directly to the secretary/treasurer. Emeritus members pay no membership fees but are entitled to all benefits of membership.
