| Abstract: | The American Psychological Association 2010 Award for Distinguished Career Contributions to Education and Training and the Award for Distinguished Contributions to Education and Training are given by the Board of Educational Affairs in recognition of the efforts of psychologists who have made distinguished contributions to education and training, who have produced imaginative innovations, or who have been involved in the developmental phases of programs in education and training in psychology. These contributions might include important research on education and training; the development of effective materials for instruction; the establishment of workshops, conferences, or networks of communication for education and training; achievement and leadership in administration that facilitates education and training; or activity in professional organizations that promote excellence. Each year one of these two awards is presented. The Distinguished Career Contributions Award recognizes continuous significant contributions made over a lifelong career in psychology; the Distinguished Contributions Award recognizes a more specific contribution to education and training. This year the Education and Training Awards Committee nominated a psychologist for the Award for Distinguished Contributions to Education and Training. The 2010 winner of the Award for Distinguished Contributions to Education and Training is Rosemary E. Phelps. (PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2010 APA, all rights reserved) |
