Hans Jurgen Eysenck (March 4, 1916 - September 4, 1997) was a German psychologist. He was born in Germany, but moved to England in the 1930s because of his opposition to the Nazis. He had interests in a wide range of areas, but he is most remembered for his work in intelligence and personality. He wrote over 50 books and over 900 academic articles in his life and was founder editor of the journal Personality and Individual Differences.

Hans Eysenck (1916-97), was professor of psychology at the Institute of Psychiatry (IoP) from 1955 to 1983. Eysenck was a major contributor to the modern scientific theory of personality, a brilliant teacher who also played a crucial role in the establishment of behavioural treatments for mental disorders. There have, however, been ethical concerns about his approach to race and intelligence, and questions have been raised about the validity of some of his claims on other topics.
