F. J. McGuigan Young Investigator Research Prize on Understanding the Human Mind

The McGuigan Prize is given biennially to a young psychologist engaged in research that seeks to explicate the concept of the human mind from a primarily psychophysiological perspective, although physiological and behavioral research may also qualify. Dualistic approaches, such as those espoused by many contemporary cognitive psychologists, do not qualify for support.
