Summer Institutes in Social and Personality Psychology

在过去的三十年里，支持社会心理学和人格心理学研究的理论、方法论和统计数据变得更加复杂。这些科学进步的部分原因是教职员工之间日益联系和多样化的学术和专业网络。该项目支持社会和人格心理学暑期学院(SISPP)的延续和扩建。社会心理学和人格研究生培训项目的研究生参加为期两周的高级强化培训计划，由该领域的知名学者和教师领导。这一级别的培训有助于 在这些科学领域取得进步，并支持其他重要创新的产生。  研究所还专注于扩大研究生的参与范围，这些研究生可能来自这些领域历史上和目前被边缘化的群体，并且可能无法密集接触到他们感兴趣的多个子领域的学者。对以前的培训机构(由NSF支持)的评估显示，参与培训的研究生成功地获得了学术职位、同行评议的出版物和研究资金。为研究生提供尖端的理论和方法培训，提高了他们参与跨学科和国际合作的能力，这些合作在整个科学界变得越来越重要。每两年安排一次，SISPP为大约100名社会心理学和人格心理学高级研究生提供机会，获得尖端理论、研究和方法方面的密集经验和指导。因为研究生课程往往提供不同领域的优势，优先考虑入学的学生，其母校在特定暑期学院期间所涵盖的主题中没有提供优势。SISPP成功地促进了实地的多样性，既促进了历史上代表性不足群体成员的职业生涯，也有助于加强不同重点和资源方案的学生的研究生培训。SISPP一直成功地促进了来自不同实验室、大学、地区和国家的个人之间的研究协作和交流网络，并为新一代研究人员创建了一个协作的学术社区。SISPP提供的多样化体验对于培养创造力、创新和灵活的科学实践至关重要，对于扩大社会和个性心理学的科学潜力至关重要，以支持解决重大社会挑战的解决方案。该奖项反映了NSF的法定使命，并通过使用基金会的智力优势和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估，被认为值得支持。

Theory, methodology, and statistics in support of research in social and personality psychology has grown in complexity over the past three decades. These scientific advances are partly due to increasingly connected and diverse academic and professional networks among faculty. This project supports the continuation and extension of Summer Institutes in Social and Personality Psychology (SISPP). Graduate students from social psychology and personality graduate training programs attend the advanced two-week intensive training program, led by renowned scholars and teachers in the field. Training at this level helps to advance these fields of science and supports the production of important innovations. The Institute also focuses on broadening the participation of graduate students who may be from groups historically and currently marginalized in these fields and who may not have intensive access to scholars in multiple subfields of their interest. Evaluation of the previous training institutes (supported by NSF) reveals that graduate students who participate are successful in obtaining academic positions, peer-reviewed publications and funding for their research. Affording graduate students with cutting-edge theoretical and methodological training enhances their ability to participate in interdisciplinary and international collaborations, which are increasingly important across all of science. Scheduled every two years, SISPP provides an opportunity for approximately 100 advanced graduate students in social and personality psychology Ph.D. programs to obtain intensive experience and instruction in cutting-edge theories, research, and methods. Because graduate programs offer strengths in different areas, preference for attendance is given to students whose home institution does not offer strengths in the topics covered during a particular Summer Institute. SISPP has been successful in fostering diversity in the field, both in promoting the careers of members of historically underrepresented groups and in enhancing the graduate training of students from programs with different emphases and resources. SISPP has been successful in fostering research collaboration and communication networks among individuals from different laboratories, universities, regions, and nations, and creating a collaborative scholarly community for a new generation of researchers. The diversifying experiences enabled by SISPP are critical for fostering creativity, innovation, and flexible scientific practices, and for expanding the scientific potential for social and personality psychology to support solutions to important societal challenges. This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.
