Routh Dissertation Grant
The Routh Research and Dissertation Grant provides support for student research that shows promise to add significantly to the research literature in the area of clinical child and adolescent psychology. Based on the quality of the applications, up to four $2,500 grants will be awarded annually.
The Routh Research and Dissertation Grant is funded by editor’s honoraria donated by long-time Division 53 member Don Routh, PhD. Before the Society of Clinical Child and Adolescent Psychology became Division 53, Routh served in many leadership roles in Division 12, Section 1, including secretary, president and APA council representative. Routh also received the Distinguished Contribution Award in 1989. The division is very thankful to Routh for his generosity and guidance and is pleased to honor him by creating this award.
Applications will only be accepted from student members of Division 53 who are enrolled in an APA-approved program of study. The student must have a dissertation project that has been approved by their advisor and their program faculty at the time of submission of the application.
Successful applicants will be encouraged to submit a poster based on their completed dissertation to the division for the APA annual convention.
Detailed application information can be found on the Division 53 (SCCAP) website.
