Eligibility

Individual and jointly authored articles are eligible. However, only one submission can be made by the first author. In addition, the first author may not have previously received this award through Div. 35. Entries should be of approximately journal length and written in APA style. Papers that have been submitted for publication or presented at professional meetings are eligible, along with papers that have been accepted for publication or published within the past two years. In the case of the latter, the papers may not be published more than two years prior to the May 15 submission deadline.

How to Apply

Annual deadline: April 30th

A panel of psychologists with expertise on psychotherapy with women will read all the entries using a standard anonymous review procedure. Judging will be made on the basis of scholarly rigor, clinical impact, theoretical creativity and innovation, methodological skills, clarity and style of presentation, in addition to its relevance and importance to psychotherapy with women. A cover sheet with the author’s name, address, email address and telephone and fax numbers should accompany the paper. The author’s name should not appear on the paper itself.

Please send the paper electronically to Sharon Rae Jenkins, PhD. The winner will be announced at the APA convention and will receive the annual prize of $250.
