Advancing U.S. Interests in International Activities in the Psychological Sciences

该项目支持美国国际心理科学联合会国家委员会(USNC/国际心理科学联合会)的活动。USNC的存在是为了在科学联盟中代表美国，该联盟是国际科学理事会(ICSU)的成员。该计划的目标是支持美国在国际联盟中的有效参与和强有力的领导，以应对不断扩大的国际科学和技术需求。它将通过利用国家研究委员会(NRC)的志愿者传统来实现这一点--这一传统吸引了顶级科学家和研究人员在USNC服务。隶属于国际科学理事会的国际联盟促进科学信息的交流，缔结关于标准和测量的国际协定，充当政府间机构的科学顾问，促进所有科学家不受政治或任何其他形式歧视地参与其活动的权利。该项目让美国研究界参与国际活动，为来自世界各地的同事提供机会，让他们在共同的基础上会面，建立伙伴关系，并讨论合作。

This project supports activities of the U.S. National Committee for the International Union of Psychological Science (USNC/IUPsyS). The USNC exists to represent the United States in the scientific union, which is a member of the International Council for Science (ICSU). The objective of this program is to support effective U.S. participation and strong leadership in the international union in response to expanding needs in international science and technology. It will accomplish this by taking advantage of the volunteer tradition of the National Research Council (NRC) -- a tradition that attracts top-level scientists and researchers to serve on USNCs. International Unions affiliated with ICSU facilitate the exchange of scientific information, forge international agreements on standards and measurements, act as scientific advisers to intergovernmental agencies, and promote the right of all scientists to participate in their activities without political or any other form of discrimination. This project engages the U.S. research community in international activities by providing opportunities for colleagues from around the world to meet on common ground, builds partnerships, and discusses collaborations.
