OCTOBER 15, 2019 — In Baltimore, MD, from October 9 through October 12, the Measurement, Statistics and Evaluation (EDMS) program in the Department of Human Development and Quantitative Methodology hosted the Society of Multivariate Experimental Psychology (SMEP) annual conference. SMEP began in 1960 as an organization of researchers interested in multivariate quantitative methods and their application to substantive problems in psychology and related fields. SMEP was established as a small elective society in order to facilitate high level research as well as intensive interaction among its internationally-recognized members. SMEP oversees the publication of a research journal entitled Multivariate Behavioral Research, a premier quantitative methods journal.
