Announcing Recipients of SPSP’s Senior Career Contribution Awards

SPSP is pleased to announce the winners of our Senior Career Contribution Awards, which honor scholars who have made significant long-term contributions to personality and social psychology. Please join us in congratulating them!

Campbell Award

The Donald T. Campbell Award recognizes distinguished scholarly achievement and sustained excellence in research in social psychology. The award is intended to recognize rigorous research over one's career, rather than one specific discovery or publication. This award honors an individual who has contributed to the field of social psychology in significant ways. It is not limited by research area or methodological approach to social psychological science.

Please join us in congratulating this year's winner, Steve West, of Arizona State University.

Methodological Innovator Award

The Methodological Innovator Award is a senior career award that recognizes an individual who has made a significant or sustained contribution to innovative methods in social and personality psychology across his or her career. The award recognizes contributions that are especially likely to generate the discovery of new hypotheses, new phenomena, or new ways of thinking about the discipline of social/personality psychology.

Please join us in congratulating this year's winner, Delroy Paulhus, of the University of British Columbia.

Application of Personality and Social Psychology Award

The Application of Personality and Social Psychology Award is a senior career award that honors a social or personality psychologist who has applied theoretical and/or empirical psychological discoveries and advances to the understanding and improvement of important practical problems across his or her career. This could include making applied theoretical and/or empirical psychological discoveries and advances while working in an academic setting, for applying social or personality psychology to other domains such as education, health, law, politics, or consumer behavior, or by working with organizations, government agencies, or industry.

Please join us in congratulating this year's winner, Jessica Woodhams, of the University of Birmingham.
