APA - Article Prize

Organization: American Philosophical Association

The APA alternates giving an award to the best article and book published in the previous two years. Nominee must be nominated by two APA members other than the author. Author must be a "younger scholar." A "younger scholar" means that the author was 40 years of age or younger in the year of the volume in which the article appears, or that the author received his or her Ph.D. 10 years or less before that year. The winner must be a member in good standing of the APA at the time the prize is awarded. Nominations are opened every other spring for the Article Prize for that year (2008, 2010, 2012, etc.). Articles published in the prior two years are eligible. Eligibility is governed by the volume year of the journal, regardless of the date on which the issue containing the nominated article actually appeared in print.
