The Psychology Research Experience Program (PREP) provides a systematic and thorough exposure to research in psychology with a focus on professional development as a researcher in psychology. PREP students become members of the mentor's laboratory, taking part in all aspects of research from reading the appropriate literature and discussing research ideas with the mentor, to gathering and analyzing data, to organizing and interpreting the results. PREP students interact closely with other undergraduate and graduate students in the mentor's lab. The end of the PREP program is marked by a symposium in the last week where each PREP student makes a 15-minute oral presentation of the work they did during the summer. Additionally, weekly group meetings are held with all PREP students. At these meetings, each mentor presents his or her research to the PREP students. In this way, each PREP student is exposed to a broad range of psychological research. Also, films are shown each week to spark student discussion of ethical issues in science. PREP students are housed with other young scientists in similar programs in other scientific disciplines. This award contributes to the Foundation's continuing efforts to attract talented students into careers in science through active undergraduate research experiences.

心理学研究体验计划（PREP）提供了一个系统和全面的心理学研究，重点是作为心理学研究人员的专业发展。 PREP学生成为导师实验室的成员，参与研究的各个方面，从阅读适当的文献，并与导师讨论研究思路，收集和分析数据，组织和解释结果。 PREP学生与导师实验室中的其他本科生和研究生密切互动。 PREP计划的结束是由一个研讨会在最后一周，每个PREP学生做了15分钟的口头报告，他们在夏天做的工作的标志。此外，每周小组会议与所有PREP学生举行。 在这些会议上，每个导师介绍他或她的研究PREP的学生。 通过这种方式，每个PREP学生都接触到广泛的心理学研究。 此外，每周都会放映电影，引发学生对科学伦理问题的讨论。 PREP学生与其他科学学科的类似项目中的其他年轻科学家住在一起。 该奖项有助于基金会通过积极的本科研究经验，继续努力吸引有才华的学生进入科学职业。
