The Faculty of Psychology, Universitas Indonesia proudly present the 3rd International Conference on Intervention and Applied Psychology (ICIAP) and 4th Universitas Indonesia International Psychology Symposium for Undergraduate Research (UIPSUR) 2019, on October 25th – 26th, 2019 in Depok, West Java, Indonesia. As a tradition geared towards facilitating scientific discussion, ICIAP and UIPSUR are scientific conferences that was started in 2016 by the Faculty of Psychology Universitas Indonesia.

ICIAP is an annual celebration of inspiring ideas and practices in applied psychology. This event brings together graduate students, academics, researchers, and policy makers from Asian and neighboring countries across the spectrum of applied psychology. On the other hand, UIPSUR is an annual research conference for undergraduate students to showcase their projects to the research community and beyond. In this event, students would specifically be encouraged to exercise their presentation skills as well as to broaden their knowledge about their academic interests. This year, ICIAP and UIPSUR will be held as a joint conference to enable intergenerational conversation on the topic, “Psychology for Synergizing Human, Environment, and Smart Technology.”

The topic is chosen because applied psychologist and practitioners are experiencing increasing pressure to face Industry 4.0, where human is challenged with the use of smart technology in all areas of life. Smart technology solved many human problems but, in another way, created different kinds of human and environment problems. This increasingly widespread societal problems seem to be growing faster than the solutions offered by behavioral sciences in general and applied psychology in particular. The event is intended to foster exchange ideas, practices and scientific discussion to address those kinds of challenges through showcasing findings on individual, group and state interventions. It is can also be a valuable opportunity for them to collaborate in the future.

Through the review process, 47 papers are accepted for publication. The review procedure was through blind review process.
