Description
The American Psychology-Law Society (AP-LS) supports research that addresses new or understudied topics in psychology and law, uses novel cross-disciplinary theoretical or methodological approaches, or examines novel populations and new problems or processes within the legal system. Projects must include collaboration with practitioners or policymakers.
The initiative seeks work that could transform the field through new lines of inquiry or cross-disciplinary collaborations. AP-LS gives preference to applications addressing disadvantaged groups or understudied topics, including work by scholars from traditionally underprivileged backgrounds. It aims to advance knowledge and contribute to changes in policy or practice.
