    PUBLICATION AWARD FOR INNOVATION IN BEHAVIORAL POLICY

    For research that advances the rigorous application and development of behavioral/social science to policy and practice in public, private and non-profit sectors.  Its goal is to encourage work that has potential to improve the quality of life of individuals and/or organizations.  We will consider all research published, in journals or as books, in the years 2020-2023.^  The date must be the in-print date rather than the online date.  Submit nominations to https://behavioralpolicy.org/publication-award/   Self-nominations are welcome.

    ^ If a member of the Awards Committee is nominated, they will be recused of evaluating nominations for this award.

    NEW INVESTIGATOR AWARD

    This award recognizes an early‐career scholar who received their doctoral degree in the last five years, so no earlier than 2018.* The award recognizes a scholar whose body of work has advanced the rigorous application and development of behavioral/social science to policy and practice in public, private and/or nonprofit sectors.   Submit nominations to https://behavioralpolicy.org/bspas-new-investigator-award/

    Self-nominations are permitted.

    * If a nominee took _official_ parental leave from their organization during this time period they will gain one year of eligibility.  This means they would still be eligible for the New Investigator Award if they completed their doctoral degree in 2017.
