Subject:  Call for Volunteers- Invitation to Review 2018 APA Dissertation Research Award Applications

Text:

As you may know, the APA Science Directorate supports science-oriented psychology graduate students each year through its student awards programs. 

I am organizing the review committee for the APA Science Directorate's Dissertation Research Award, and I hope that you will consider volunteering your time and expertise. 

The APA Dissertation Research Awards recognize excellence in psychological research and are intended to assist graduate students with research costs. The awards are sponsored by the APA Science Directorate, and the most current information about this program can be viewed online at http://www.apa.org/about/awards/scidir-dissertre.aspx

We would be grateful if you would contribute to supporting the next generation of psychological scientists by serving as a reviewer. If you are interested, please respond to this invitation to let me know that you can review this year.

If you choose to volunteer, copies of this year's applications will be shared to you online from the APA Science Directorate's Google Drive account. All applications will be ready for review by the middle of September, and your ratings will be due by late October. We request a numerical rating and a yes/no recommendation about whether we should fund the student.

Serving on this Review Committee is a great opportunity to engage in service to the profession without having to commit a lot of time. There is no travel involved and reviewing all assigned applications can be accomplished in a matter of an hour or two. Depending on your research area and this year's application volume, you will be assigned 5-8 applications, but will not be assigned more than 9 applications maximum. Each application consists of a maximum of 6-pages total: a cover letter (one-page), dissertation summary (two-pages), letter of reference (one-page), and CV (two-pages). 

If you have any questions about reviewer commitments, feel free to contact me at Chatcher@apa.org or dra@apa.org

Be sure to inform your graduate students about this opportunity to apply for a Dissertation Research Award if they are eligible: http://www.apa.org/about/awards/scidir-dissertre.aspx?tab=2


Thank you for your time and consideration.

Sincerely,



Cameron Hatcher
Science Programs Associate, Science Directorate
