The ACBS Awards Committee was formed in 2016 and is committed to the growth of ACBS values by recognizing the important works of those who have excelled in various aspects in the field of contextual behaviorism. The ACBS Awards Committee has grown to include the following duties:
- Review the applications and select the recipient of the Michael J. Asher Dissertation Award.
- Assist in selecting the Junior Investigator Poster Awards from the poster presentations at the annual ACBS World Conference.
- Review the application and select the receipient of the ACBS Diversity Award.
The Awards Committee is planning to increase the number of awards available in the future.
We are always looking for new volunteers who want to serve on the Awards Committee, we are particularly interested in increasing our members from non-US countries.
Committee members are currently asked for a very small-time commitment - assisting with the awards selection will involve 2-3 hours of your time in February OR in the month before the World Conference. Please indicate your interest here!
