This proposal creates an REU program in the combined areas of Social, Developmental, Health, and Cognitive Neuroscience Psychology (SDHCNP) within the NAU Department of Psychology. It provides direct research experience for 8 Native American, Hispanic, African American, Native Alaskan, and Native Hawaiian/Pacific Islander students, including first generation college/university students who are disabled, female, and White Each student will conduct research in a selected specialty area under the guidance of active Psychology Department researchers. The target audience is unique, and there is a good approach to recruiting by including personal visits. Positive focus on professional development, grad school applications, methods for students. Different from other proposals, there is a plan to have a control group for the evaluation which is a good idea. The only concern discussed and resolved was that the research was not quite as innovative as some at the forefront in psychology research, but in the comments and discussion it was agreed on that it is clearly engaging for students; that the intellectual merits were really thoughtful; and the research is strong and solid with its direct, closely supervised, hands-on original research experiences in individual faculty laboratories provided by an experienced, productive, and stimulating faculty research mentor.

该提案在NAU心理学系的社会、发展、健康和认知神经科学心理学（SDHCNP）联合领域创建了一个REU计划。它为8名美国原住民、西班牙裔、非裔美国人、阿拉斯加原住民和夏威夷原住民/太平洋岛民学生提供直接的研究经验，包括第一代残疾人、女性和白人大学生。每位学生将在活跃的心理学系研究人员的指导下，在选定的专业领域进行研究。目标受众是独一无二的，包括个人拜访是一个很好的招聘方法。积极关注专业发展、研究生申请、学生方法。与其他建议不同的是，有一个计划是有一个对照组来进行评估，这是一个好主意。唯一讨论和解决的问题是，这项研究并不像一些心理学研究的前沿那样具有创新性，但在评论和讨论中，人们一致认为，它显然对学生很有吸引力；智力上的优点确实是深思熟虑的；研究是强大而坚实的，它的直接，密切监督，亲自动手的原创研究经验，在个别教师实验室由经验丰富，富有成效，激励教师研究导师提供。
