The 2004 Gold Medal Award for Life Achievement in the Application of Psychology was awarded to Edwin A. Fleishman, for his significant contributions to the science and applications of psychology, which he has sustained over his remarkable career.

Fritz Heider: Distinguished Scientific Contribution Award.

Presents the 1965 American Psychological Association Distinguished Scientific Contribution Award to Fritz Heider. The citation reads: "For his trailblazing thoughts about the fundamentals of perception, and for seeing problems that others did not recognize. Long ago he showed us the puzzle of the relations of things to their stimuli. Since then he has been thinking about persons and their acts, interpersonal behavior and harmony between persons, displaying in his own theory a tolerant encouragement of other theorists. Working within a long view of history and a wide view of science, he has provided grist for the mills of many experimenters and polish for the theoretical machinery of many thinkers." Biographical information is also provided, along with a list of the award winner's scientific writings. (PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2010 APA, all rights reserved)

Three award winners were announced for 1965: Floyd Henry Allport, Fritz Heider, and Paul Thomas Young. The Awards for Distinguished Scientific Contribution are presented by the Association at the Annual Convention. Each winner was presented with an engrossed citation of his formal contribution to the development of scientific psychology and a check for one thousand dollars. These psychologists have agreed, in accordance with what is established custom, to give addresses on some phase of their scientific work at the convention in 1966. The presentation of the awards was made by James J. Gibson, Chairman of the Committee for Selecting the Recipients of Awards for Outstanding Contribution to Scientific Psychology.

Richard Chatham Atkinson: Distinguished Scientific Contribution Awards for 1977.

Richard Chatham Atkinson was presented a Distinguished Scientific Contribution Award for combining classical methods of mathematics with emerging techniques of computer science, the best traditions of experimental psychology with new concepts of information processing, in the advancement of psychological theory and its applications. His long-term collaboration with Patrick Suppes yielded among its fruits the first extensive application of learning theory to multiperson interactions. With Richard M. Shiffrin, Atkinson developed the model that has set the pace for research on human short-term memory; with James Juola and others he developed an almost equally influential family of models for recognition and search processes. And on a quite different tack, Atkinson anticipated current demands for "relevance" with his pioneering contributions to computer-assisted instruction and optimization of learning.

Starke R. Hathaway: Distinguished Contribution for Applications in Psychology Award for 1977.

Starke R. Hathaway was presented with a Distinguished Contribution for Applications in Psychology Award for his contributions to clinical psychology, which began in 1937 when he helped to organize the new University of Minnesota Hospitals Psychopathic Unit, having its primary commitment to research. Simultaneously, he began (with J. C. McKinley) to build the Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory, now the most thoroughly researched (over 6,000 publications) and widely used structured personality test. Equally important was his gently probing Socratic intellectual influence on graduate students, who often became leading teachers, researchers, practitioners, and administrators, spreading the influential 'Minnesota viewpoint'-- skeptical, empirical, quantitative, biological, tough-minded, and emphasizing the cognitive and existential aspects of psychotherapy years before their general acceptance.

Early Career Awards for 1977.

The three recipients of the Early Career Award, given for the first time in 1974, were drawn from the fields of psychopathology, human learning/cognition, and physiological psychology. The Committee on Scientific Awards postponed giving the award in 1975 in the fields of developmental, personality, and animal learning because several of the panels did not reach consensus on nominees. Therefore, the recipients for 1976 were drawn from those fields. The awards for 1977 were given in the areas of methodological, sensation/perception, and social psychology. Recipients of this award may not be more than 8 years post-PhD and are drawn from different areas on a rotating basis. In 1975 the awards will again be given in psychopathology, human learning/cognition, and physiological psychology. Every year a panel will be selected for each field in order to recommend a slate of nominees to the Committee on Scientific Awards. The panels for this year were Lewis R. Goldberg (Chair), Barry E. Collins, and E. Belvin Williams for methodological; Julian Hochberg (Chair), Robert M. Boynton, and Richard M. Held for sensation/perception; and John M. Darley (Chair), Leonard Berkowitz, and Alice Hendrickson Eagly for social. (PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2010 APA, all rights reserved)
