Division 54 Fellows

Members of the Society of Pediatric Psychology are encouraged to consider becoming a candidate for Fellow of Division 54. Fellow status reflects recognition by colleagues and the APA of extraordinary contributions to our discipline. Criteria for recognition as a Fellow include having a national impact on psychology, sustained contributions to pediatric psychology for more than 5 years, distinctive contributions to pediatric psychology that are recognized by others as excellent, and contributions whose impact extends beyond the immediate setting in which the candidate works. Areas of unusual and outstanding contributions include research, teaching, administration, professional service, and practice.  Additional information about APA Fellow Status is available at http://www.apa.org/membership/fellows.html.

Application Procedures
Completed materials need to be submitted no later than November 15th for consideration during the next cycle. Applications are reviewed by the SPP Fellows Committee, and if the review is positive, the Fellows Chair forwards supporting materials to the APA Membership Committee in February. The APA Membership Committee then decides whether to endorse the application and forwards it to the Board of Directors and Council of Representatives for a vote at the annual meeting.
Division 54 members who are interested in obtaining a Fellow Application Packet are encouraged to e-mail Karen Roberts with that request. Please include your postal service address with your request.
