The L. Rowell Huesmann Award is an early career award named after L. Rowell Huesmann, past ISRA President (1996-1998), ISRA Executive Secretary (1985-1994), and Aggressive Behavior Editor (2004-2012). This award recognizes a significant contribution to aggression research within 10 years of completing a terminal graduate degree (e.g., PhD) and is awarded at each biennial World Meeting, where the recipient delivers an address.

Nominations include a recommendation letter (2 pages max) from an ISRA Fellow who is not an Officer or Council Member, a CV, and links to five publications. Nominations can be sent as a single pdf with these ordered documents to the Executive Secretary (bushman.20@osu.edu). The winner will be selected by the ISRA Council and will be announced in the December ISRA Bulletin.
