The University of Pennsylvania Positive Psychology Center, with support from the Templeton Religion Trust, is pleased to announce the Primals Research Awards. Our goal is to promote new empirical research exploring how primal world beliefs (‘primals’) are formed, maintained, change, or influence nontrivial outcomes or psychological processes. As recently introduced, primals are basic perceptions of the general character of the world as a whole, such as the world is dangerous and the world is interesting, that correlate with many behaviors and wellbeing-related variables. We are giving awards that will be administered to Principal Investigators proposing to examine primals from any of the following eight disciplinary perspectives: Clinical Psychology Positive Psychology Health Psychology Organizational Psychology Political Psychology Personality Psychology Social Psychology Developmental Psychology Eligibility Principal Investigators must have a PhD and be in a contracted faculty position at an accredited college or university (exceptions will be considered on a case-by-case basis).
