Psi Chi Regional Research Awards

Psi Chi, the International Honor Society in Psychology, encourages student participation in the RMPA convention and would like to acknowledge student papers in the program. All papers submitted by undergraduate or graduate student members of Psi Chi are eligible for one of six $400 Regional Research Awards. Winners must present their research orally at the convention. Faculty co-authors are allowed. The first author must be a member of Psi Chi. If you are asking to be considered for this award, it is helpful if you have the Psi Chi membership number of the first author when you are submitting your proposal.
