For over half a century, the James McKeen Cattell Fund has provided support for the science and the application of psychology. The Fund offers a program of supplementary sabbatical awards (“James McKeen Cattell Fund Fellowships”). These awards supplement the regular sabbatical allowance provided by the recipients’ home institutions, to allow an extension of leave-time from one to two semesters. Information on the history of the fund, as well as application materials, requirements for award eligibility, and a list of previous recipients are available on this site. See topics listed in the left hand column.

Past recipients of the Cattell Sabbatical Awards can be found on this site.

The 2024-2025 Awardees Are:

Gary Lupyan (University of Wisconsin-Madison)
Tracy Riggins (University of Maryland, College Park)
Elizabeth Schotter (University of South Florida)
