Robert Krueger – Personality and the Meta-Structure of Psychopathology

Robert Krueger, University of Minnesota

Empirical modeling of psychopathology identifies coherent spectra. These spectra transcend constructs traditionally conceptualized as “personality” vs. “psychopathology.” Progress in delineating biological—including genetic—correlates involves a process of interweaving biological indicators with the empirically-derived phenotypic structure of psychopathology.

Free and open to the public. This is the final presentation for this academic year.

Robert F. Krueger, Ph.D., is Distinguished McKnight University Professor and Hathaway Distinguished Professor, and serves as Director of Clinical Training in the Department of Psychology at the University of Minnesota. He completed his undergraduate and graduate work at the University of Wisconsin, Madison, and his clinical internship at Brown University. Professor Krueger’s major interests lie at the intersection of research on psychopathology and physical health, personality and personality disorders, psychometrics, and genetics. He has received a number of awards, including the University of Minnesota McKnight Land-Grant Professorship, the American Psychological Association’s Award for Early Career Contributions, the award for Early Career Contributions from the International Society for the Study of Individual Differences, and an American Psychological Foundation Mid-Career Award. He is a Fellow of the American Psychopathological Association (APPA), the Society for Personality Assessment (SPA) and the Association for Psychological Science (APS), and was inducted into the Society for Multivariate Experimental Psychology (SMEP). He is also Editor of the Journal of Personality Disorders.

This event is sponsored by the Center for Research on Ethical/Legal/Social Implications of Psychiatric, Neurologic & Behavioral Genetics, and the Department of Psychiatry, Columbia University Medical Center. This seminar is part of the Seminar on Ethical, Legal and Social Implications of Genetics series.
