| Abstract: | At the Annual Meeting of the American Psychological Association (APA) in Chicago, Illinois, on September 6, 1965, the American Psychological Foundation (APF) announced the recipients of the APF Gold Medal Award and of the APF Distinguished Science Writing Award. The APF was established in 1953 to receive gifts and bequests from psychologists wishing to make financial contributions toward the development of psychology as a science and as a contributor to human welfare. One part of this program is the presentation of the Gold Medal Award and the Distinguished Science Writing Award. Heinrich Klüver, the Sewell L. Avery Distinguished Service Professor at the University of Chicago, was named recipient of the 1965 APF Gold Medal Award. On this same occasion the 1965 award for Distinguished Science Writing was presented to Earl Ubell, the Science Editor of the New York Herald Tribune. Presentations were made by Meredith P. Crawford, President of APF. (PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2010 APA, all rights reserved) |
