Editor of the European Journal of Personality

Prof. Dr. Matthias Ziegler
Humboldt-University Berlin (Germany)

Matthias Ziegler is a full professor of Psychological Assessment at the Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin, Germany. His research is concerned with factors affecting life-long learning and performance. It is built around the topics of measurement of traits and abilities, social desirability and faking, situation perception, and modeling of their interactions. Matthias has served as editor-in-chief of the European Journal of Psychological Assessment from 2013-2016 and is the founding editor of Psychological Test Adaptation and Modeling. He was president of the European Association of Psychological Assessment (2019-2021). Matthias looks forward to being a member of the EAPP EC. In 2024 Matthias and his team will host the ECP in Berlin. This is both an honor and a great challenge which will probably occupy much of the upcoming months. But most of all it will hopefully be a lot of fun.
