Description
The American Psychological Foundation’s Marian R. Stuart Grant supports an early-career psychologist’s research, practice, or education on the connection between mental and physical health. The program places particular emphasis on work that contributes to public health and advances understanding of how psychological care and behavior affect physical health.
Supported work may include research-based programs that teach medical doctors counseling skills, examine the effects of behavior on health, or explore psychologists’ roles in medical settings for patients’ benefit. These examples illustrate the program’s interests without limiting its scope. Past projects have addressed diabetes, chronic health conditions in adolescents, psychosis and HIV services, cardiovascular risk, and rehabilitation for patients with glioma.
