This award provides funds for an REU Site in Psychology at City University of New York, Baruch College. Sixteen students, who attend colleges in New York City, will participate in the Site as a paid research assistant for three, 12-week semesters. The REU undergraduates will join existing research teams and contribute to ongoing empirical research programs in areas of applied and basic psychology. Students will also propose and complete projects of their own under the direct supervision of a research scientist. The REU project itself will be an experiment in research education evaluated with outcome data. The program will: (1) prepare students for advanced graduate training in scientific psychology and ultimately for careers in academic and applied settings; (2) identify early promising minority students and prepare them for careers in scientific psychology; (3) increase psychological scientists' interests in minority issues and concerns as research topics; and (4) develop a CUNY pipeline to provide a pool of talented and diverse students to become the research scientists of the future. Each REU student will join a research team working in an area that matches the student's expressed interests. Each team will focus in one area of psychology, planning and executing studies with the intention of presenting professional papers and submitting research reports to quality peer-reviewed journals. Students will choose one of four ongoing research teams: (a) The psychology and law team; (b) the industrial/organizational team; (c) the social psychology team; and (d) the educational psychology team. Students may also work with a faculty member whose research does not fit one of the four research teams. Students will participate in the entire research process.This award contributes to the Foundation's continuing efforts to attract talented students into careers in science through active undergraduate research experiences.

该奖项为纽约城市大学巴鲁克学院的心理学REU网站提供资金。 十六名学生，谁参加大学在纽约市，将参加该网站作为一个有偿的研究助理为三个，12周的学期。 REU本科生将加入现有的研究团队，并为应用和基础心理学领域正在进行的实证研究项目做出贡献。 学生还将在研究科学家的直接监督下提出并完成自己的项目。 REU项目本身将是一个用结果数据评估的研究教育实验。 该方案将：（1）为学生接受科学心理学的高级研究生培训并最终在学术和应用环境中就业做好准备;（2）发现早期有前途的少数群体学生，并为他们从事科学心理学职业做好准备;（3）提高心理科学家对少数群体问题和关注作为研究课题的兴趣;以及（4）开发一个纽约城市大学的管道，提供一个人才库和多样化的学生成为未来的研究科学家。 每个REU学生将加入一个研究团队，在一个符合学生表达的兴趣领域工作。 每个团队将专注于心理学的一个领域，计划和执行研究，目的是提交专业论文并向高质量的同行评审期刊提交研究报告。 学生将选择四个正在进行的研究团队之一：（a）心理学和法律团队;（B）工业/组织团队;（c）社会心理学团队;和（d）教育心理学团队。 学生也可以与其研究不适合四个研究团队之一的教师合作。 学生将参与整个研究过程。该奖项有助于基金会通过积极的本科生研究经验不断努力吸引有才华的学生进入科学事业。
