Experimental Psychology Society

Experimental Psychology Society

The Experimental Psychology Society (EPS) is an academic society which facilitates research into experimental psychology and communication between experimental psychologists. It is based in the United Kingdom.

The society was originally formed as the "Experimental Psychology Group" by Oliver L. Zangwill in 1946. The first meeting was held in the rooms of Professor Frederic Bartlett, in St. John's College, Cambridge.

The Group became the EPS in 1958, the transition being handled by the then president, W. E. Hick.
