IAPSP Research and Project Grant Application

IAPSP is pleased to announce that funds are available to support either ongoing or start-up research and clinical/applied project activities of IAPSP members. To support a small number of projects for the year of 2008, we have $15,000. If our budget allows, we plan to make available the same amount of money, or more, each year.

For the year of 2008, please complete and submit the application form and materials by December 1, 2007. All applications will be judged by the members of the research committee within the following six weeks and announcements of the grant distributions will occur on or about January 15, 2008.

While criteria for assessment of applications will vary, depending on the nature of the research or clinical/applied project, they will include: import and relevance to self psychology, originality, scientific merit, feasibility, evidence of expertise of the applicant and experience needed to complete the project.
