40th Annual Meeting of the Jean Piaget Society
NEWS: Student & New Scholar
Conference Travel Awards [more...]
Join
social scientists and educators from around the world as they
explore new and compelling research on the development of self-regulation
and autonomy.
Like the major rivers that meet
in St. Louis, self-regulation and autonomy represent a special
confluence in the study of human conduct. The Jean Piaget Society
has invited a distinguished group of scholars to share their
work and guide our exploration of the social, developmental,
and educational currents of this year’s conference theme.
