The APA Division 15 Career Achievement Award (previously the E. L. Thorndike Career Achievement Award) is an award of the American Psychological Association given to living recipients for substantial career achievements in educational psychology. The award's winners are recognized for research in the best tradition of educational psychology, meaning that the award is conferred for original, scientific, empirically based research that contributes significantly to knowledge, theory, or practice in educational psychology.[1] It was named for the noted psychologist Edward Thorndike but later renamed following revelations which tied Thorndike to eugenics.
