Award for Distinguished Scientific Early Career Contributions to Psychology: Nathan M. Holmes

The American Psychological Association's Awards for Distinguished Scientific Early Career Contributions to Psychology recognize psychologists who have demonstrated excellence early in their careers. One of the 2016 award winners is Nathan M. Holmes, whose work "has helped to elucidate the role of error-correction mechanisms in extinction, how extinguished and counter-conditioned fear responses are regulated by context and time, and how motivational states (such as fear) alter the content and neural substrates of associative formation." Holmes's award citation, biography, and selected bibliography are presented here. (PsycINFO Database Record
