Deadline: 1-Mar-22
The American Psychological Foundation (APF) has announced a call for proposals for the Esther Katz Rosen Fund Grants Program for work related to the psychological understanding of gifted children and youth.
The Esther Katz Rosen Fund was established in 1974 by a generous bequest intended to support “…activities related to the advancement and application of knowledge about gifted children.”
Rosen Fund grants:
- enable and enhance development of identified gifted and talented children and adolescents
- encourage promising psychologists to continue innovative research and programs in this area
Support will be provided for activities on the advancement and application of knowledge related to identified gifted and talented children and adolescents, such as:
- research
- pilot projects
- research-based programs
Funding Information
Grant amounts range from $1,000 to $50,000.
Eligibility Criteria
Applicants must:
- be affiliated with a school or education institution
- hold a doctoral degree from, or be a graduate student at, an accredited university for research proposals
Graduate students and early career psychologists (10 years or less postdoctoral) are encouraged to apply. APF also supports pilot projects that, if successful, would be strong candidates for support from major federal and foundation funding agencies, and "demonstration projects" that promise to generalize broadly to other geographical areas and/or to other settings. Teaching time releases are not supported from the Rosen Fund.
Evaluation Criteria
Proposals will be evaluated on:
- conformance with stated program goals and qualifications
- quality and impact of proposed work
- innovation and contribution to the field
- applicant’s demonstrated competence and capability to execute the proposed work
