The annual PPIG (Psychology of Programming Interest Group) workshop is a forum in which researchers concerned with psychological aspects of software development can present and discuss recent results, findings and developments. Despite its name, PPIG entertains a broad spectrum of research approaches, from theoretical perspectives drawing on psychological theory to empirical perspectives grounded in real-world experience, and is equally concerned with all aspects of programming and software engineering, from the design of programming languages to communication issues in software teams, and from computing education to high-performance professional practice. PPIG aims to bring together people working in a variety of disciplines and to break down cross-disciplinary barriers.

We look forward to welcoming you to University Carlos III of Madrid.

Rachel Bellamy and Joseph Lawrance (co-chairs)
