Cornelis George Boeree (born January 15, 1952) was an American psychologist and professor emeritus at Shippensburg University, specializing in personality theory and the history of psychology.
He was the author of the first online psychology texts,[1] which he made available at no cost to students and other interested parties starting in 1997. They have been translated into German,[2] Spanish,[3] and Bulgarian.[4] Two of his textbooks have been published, one on personality theories [5] and one on the history of psychology.[6]
Boeree was also the inventor of the auxiliary language Lingua Franca Nova, which first appeared in 1998 on the Internet. He was the coeditor of the Lingua Franca Nova dictionary. [7]
He was born in Badhoevedorp, near Amsterdam, in the Netherlands. He moved with his parents and brother to the United States in 1956 and grew up on Long Island, New York. He married Judy Kovarik in 1972 and had three daughters. He received his doctoral degree in 1980 from Oklahoma State University.[8]
