The Cognitive Development Society seeks to promote the attendance of young scholars from groups traditionally underrepresented in the field at its 2015 meeting taking place October 9-10 in Columbus, OH. The award will support travel awards to students, post-docs and young investigators from underrepresented groups. To promote networking and professional socialization for these awardees, funds will also support a new mentoring program to ensure a positive and productive conference experience for the young scholars. The mentoring program will match each young scholar with a more experienced scholar in the field, one with similar research interests. Through an organized meeting at the start of the conference with their mentors, mentees will have the opportunity to forge new professional relationships and broaden their academic network. The young scholars will also be promoted at the conference by being acknowledged during an awards ceremony. Mentors will also support their mentees by attending the young scholars' presentations. These activities are intended to ensure that attending the CDS 2015 conference is a positive and productive experience for young scholars from traditionally underrepresented groups, and to increase the likelihood that attending the conference will yield a positive impact that endures beyond the conference itself.

认知发展学会（Cognitive Development Society）将于2015年10月9日至10日在俄亥俄州哥伦布市举行会议，旨在促进来自该领域传统上代表性不足群体的年轻学者参加会议。该奖项将为来自代表性不足群体的学生、博士后和年轻研究人员提供旅行奖。为了促进这些获奖者的网络和专业社交，资金还将支持一个新的指导计划，以确保年轻学者有一个积极和富有成效的会议体验。该指导计划将为每位年轻学者匹配一位在该领域更有经验、有相似研究兴趣的学者。通过在会议开始时与导师组织的会议，学员将有机会建立新的专业关系并扩大他们的学术网络。青年学者也将在会议上通过颁奖仪式得到表彰。导师也将通过参加青年学者的演讲来支持他们的学生。这些活动旨在确保参加CDS 2015会议对传统上代表性不足的群体的年轻学者来说是一次积极和富有成效的经历，并增加参加会议产生积极影响的可能性，这种影响将持续到会议本身之外。
