Abstract
The Awards for Distinguished Scientific Contributions are presented to persons who, in the opinion of the Committee on Scientific Awards, have made distinguished theoretical or empirical contributions to basic research in psychology. The 2024 recipients of the APA Distinguished Scientific Contribution Awards were recognized by the 2023 Board of Scientific Affairs and selected by the 2023 Committee on Scientific Awards. For her outstanding theoretical and empirical contributions to prosocial development, empathy, and self-regulation from a multimethod and multidisciplinary approach, Nancy Eisenberg is a 2024 award winner. She has single-handedly launched the field of emotion regulation, defined constructs, and established reliable and valid methodologies. Her expansive longitudinal, cross-sectional, and experimental studies demonstrated the robustness of the phenomena that she investigated. Examples of the brilliant impact of her research are evidenced across multiple fields of psychology, including the social neuroscience of empathy, motivation that underlies effortful control, clinical implications of individual differences, and the developmental origins of emotions and their regulation in the context of peer and adult- child interactions and forms of communication.
