Throughout the history of psychology many theorists and researchers have sought to understand the development of personality and its variations amongst individuals. Personality encompasses the array of thoughts, feelings, behaviours, social adjustments and attitudes which influence individual choices, expectations, self-perceptions, values, attitudes and interpretations. Due to its varying and complex nature, there is no single agreed upon definition of personality however, understanding personality allows us to predict behavioural responses and decisions based on individual differences, making it a key topic within the domain of psychology. The psychology of personality will be theme of the 32nd EFPSA Congress in Malta in 2018 where we will explore personality in terms of intercultural and cross-cultural individual differences. Through its engaging programme, the Congress will strive to equip students with a multidisciplinary understanding of personality. Throughout the Congress, we will aim to understand how personality develops, how it varies amongst individuals, how similar individuals may be in terms of personality, and how it influences the way we think and behave in order to increase knowledge significant for the everyday lives of students.
