I am interested to discover if anyone is undertaking research in personal construct theory. There seemed to be a lot of PCT/PCP research ongoing a few years ago but less so these days. I would be grateful to hear from anyone engaged in this research or who can point me towards appropriate scholars. Many thanks.
There are two journals practically entirely dedicated to personal construct psychology. One is Journal of Constructivist Psychology (http://www.tandfonline.com/toc/upcy20/current#.VRnHofmUeuk), the other one is Personal Construct Theory and Practice, available for free online: http://www.pcp-net.org/journal/
There are many PCP-based studies scattered here and there in different journals. If you need anything on a specific topic, perhaps I can help, don't hesitate to ask. :-)
The new Handbook of Personal Construct Psychology is through. Its full title is the “Wiley Handbook of Personal Construct Psychology” with David A Winter and Nick Reed as Editors.
In our research group at the University of Barcelona we have been doing research based on PCT for more than 25 years. You can find our publications in the groups' web page www.ub.edu/ipcs and also in Researchgate

Thanks for your interest!
Both at the University of Manchester and now at Cardiff University, I've been supervising and publishing research work using PCT and repertory grids as a research tool - you can find all of these studies on my RG page. The new handbook sounds very interesting as well.
Thank you Beatrice, Guillem and Dougal. The handbook and your research is of much interest.
Going back to Vladimir's post from 2014 regarding the specialist PCP journals, we have always endeavoured to publish in non-PCT journals as all of our work relates in some way to clinical psychology and hence we wanted it to be more visible and hopefully accessible to a wider audience who are not necessarily versed in PCP.
I use this theory to conduct a professional interview.By asking questions based on this theory, I want to identify the " managers personal constructs " as the basis for judging about others in process of selecting , learning ,.
