James McKeen Cattell Fund
2026-2027 Cattell Sabbatical Awardees
Juliet Davidow (Northeastern University), Jessica Magidson (University of Maryland, College Park), and Marisa Spann (Columbia University, Vagelos College of Physicians and Surgeons) have been awarded this year’s James McKeen Cattell Fund Sabbatical Fellowships. These awards provide an extended sabbatical period that allows the recipient to engage in activities that can have a transformational impact on their research programs.
For over half a century, the James McKeen Cattell Fund has provided support for the science and the application of psychology. The Fund offers James McKeen Cattell Sabbatical Awards up to $40,000. 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.
James McKeen Cattell Sabbatical Awardees will be announced annually at the APS Annual Convention and a profile of each awardee will be published in the APS Observer.
The application for the 2027-2028 awards will open soon.
