Alison Poor Wins Research Award

We just learned that Alison Poor, an advanced doctoral student in the Anger and Traffic Psychology Lab, won a Peggy Jean Connor Research Award that will provide her with $960 to support her dissertation. Ali’s dissertation, “Predictors of Relational Aggression in Women Across Adulthood” will use MTurk to recruit participants, and this award should cover her payments to participants.

The Peggy Jean Connor Research Award is given annually by the University of Southern Mississippi’s Committee on Services & Resources for Women to promote research on gender issues by faculty and graduate students and professional development activities for staff. As part of the award, Ali will present her research in March.

Congratulations, Ali!
