Concepts, Ontologies and Methods of Personality Across Species

The research initiative 'COMPAS' brings together philosophers of science, psychologists and biologists to combine concepts, ontologies and methods of personality across species. The initiative focuses on how personality is conceptualised, how personality traits are classified, to what extent generalisations across species are possible and how research methods can be refined, validated and standardised.
