About Society for Affective Science

The Society for Affective Science, founded in 2013, is a non-profit organization dedicated to fostering basic and applied research across fields that study affect and emotion broadly defined. To achieve this goal, we hold annual conferences that showcase international, cross-disciplinary research from psychology, medicine, neuroscience, computer science, law, economics, anthropology, linguistics, sociology, business, political science and other related fields. Particular attention is paid to creating contexts in which (a) scholars at all stages of professional development can interact in both formal and informal ways, (b) differences in theoretical perspectives and methodologies are welcome, and (c) interdisciplinary and international collaborations are fostered. Our flagship journal, Affective Science, was launched to also further these aims. Our guiding premise is that a shared interest in the wellsprings of human and non-human affective phenomena (including emotions, moods, and other motivated states) transcends traditional disciplinary differences in emphasis and focus, and that collaborations across disciplinary and national boundaries will accelerate scientific discoveries in a range of topics and fields.
