University of Connecticut, Rohner Center Awards: Distinguished Contributions to Theory, Research, and Practice on Interpersonal Acceptance and Rejection: The Rohner Center is pleased to announce that the University of Connecticut has authorized the creation of the University of Connecticut Rohner Center Awards for Distinguished Contributions to Theory, Research, and Practice on Interpersonal Acceptance and Rejection.
The awards are intended to encourage and recognize outstanding contributions in the field of interpersonal acceptance and rejection. Researchers, scholars, and practitioners worldwide are encouraged to submit theory, research, or practice-based manuscripts on any topic relevant to interpersonal acceptance and rejection. Such topics include but are not limited to issues dealing with parental acceptance-rejection, peer acceptance-rejection, teacher acceptance-rejection, acceptance-rejection among intimate adults, adult offspring’s acceptance and rejection of their aging parents, and others.
The Rohner Center expects to give two Awards of $1,000 each every two years at the biennial meetings of the International Society for Interpersonal Acceptance and Rejection (ISIPAR) at the time the Award is given. These cash awards are intended to both acknowledge outstanding contributions to the field of interpersonal acceptance and rejection and to help cover expenses associated with attending and giving an Awards Address at the international meeting. Two categories of awards are given, as follows:
