Abstract
The Early Career Awards, given for the first time in 1974, recognize the large number of excellent early career psychologists. Recipients of this award may not have held a doctoral degree for more than nine years. For outstanding contributions to the computational understanding of 'intuitive theories' in cognition and their development in children, Tomer Ullman is a 2024 award winner. His work on intuitive physics has illuminated an approximate mental model of object dynamics, and his work on intuitive psychology has illuminated a rich mental model of other minds. He has used innovative computational methods to formalize these ideas and tested them in elegant experiments. His work has also contributed to the study of artificial intelligence, showing how machines with humanlike intelligence can be constructed.
