Facilitating Minority Advancement in the Social Sciences

超出所提供的空间。拟议的COR荣誉本科生研究培训计划的长期目标是在与生物医学科学或心理健康领域相关的博士课程的入学（目标= 100%）和成功（目标= 100%）中实现种族平等。在全国范围内，非裔美国人，拉丁美洲人，一些亚裔美国人和所有美洲原住民在科学和社会科学领域的代表性不足。在当地，在过去的五年里，在科罗拉多州立大学北岭分校的心理学系，至少有76名学生进入了非专业的博士课程。其中，58人是白色（76%）和18（24%）是有色人种的学生。然而，CSUN心理学专业的有色人种学生比例为52.3%。 该计划的具体目标是通过以下方式提高代表性不足的学生的成功：（a）确定8名似乎最有潜力的学生，（B）在研究的基本假设、价值和陷阱方面对学生进行培训，（c）通过与教师导师一起进行特定的研究项目，促进学生的特定研究技能，以及（d）提供具体的信息和支持，以确保学生具备在博士课程中取得成功所需的素质，例如帮助学生完成ORE和提交专业论文。学生将参加关于研究过程的荣誉学术研讨会和实践研讨会系列，并与他们的研究导师一对一地工作。教师导师的研究项目反映了各种领域，包括阿尔茨海默病的神经心理学，精神分裂症患者的社会认知和暴力预防。 三个目标的评价是明确的。目标是：（a）进入研究生院;（B）在研究生院取得成功;（c）承担职业和社会责任。每个目标都更加具体，具体的计划组件与每个目标相匹配。性能现场=

EXCEED THE SPACE PROVIDED. The long-term goal of the proposed COR Honors Undergraduate Research Training program is to achieve ethnic parity in admissions to (goal = 100%) and success in doctoral programs (goal = 100%) related to the biomedical sciences or mental health fields. Nationally, African Americans, Latin Americans, some Asian Americans, and all Native Americans are underrepresented in the sciences and social sciences. Locally, in the past five years in CSU Northridge's Department of Psychology, at least 76 students have gone on to non-professional doctoral programs. Of these, 58 were white (76%) and 18 (24%) were students of color. However, the percentage students of color in Psychology at CSUN was 52.3%. The specific aims of the program are to increase underrepresented student success by: (a) identifying eight students who appear to have the greatest potential, (b) training students in the fundamental assumptions, value of, and pitfalls of research, (c) facilitating students' specific research skills by their working with a faculty mentor on a specific research project, and (d) providing specific information and support to ensure that students have the qualities required to be successful in a doctoral program, such as assistance with the ORE and the presentation of a professional paper. Students will attend an honors academic seminar on the research process and a practical seminar series and work one-on- one with their research mentors. Faculty mentors' research projects reflect a variety of areas including the neuropsychology of Alzheimer's Disease, social perception in patients with schizophrenia, and violence prevention. Evaluation of three goals is specified. The goals are: (a) admission to graduate school (b) success while in graduate school and (c) professional and social responsibility. Each goal is made more specific and specific program components are matched with each goal.
