JCP Awards
Each year, the Editorial Board of the Journal of Consumer Psychology evaluates eligible scholarly work to recognize exemplary articles published in the journal.
2023 JCP BEST PAPER AWARD
This award is given to the best refereed paper published three years prior in the Journal of Consumer Psychology. Papers are first nominated via vote by the JCP Editorial Review Board. The papers that received the most nominations were then reviewed by a committee, who chose an honorable mention and a winner for the award.
“Improving Financial Inclusion through Communal Financial Orientation: How Financial Service Providers
Can Better Engage Consumers in Banking Deserts,” Volume 30, 2, 379-331, 2020.
2023 JCP BEST PAPER BY EARLY CAREER CONTRIBUTOR
This award is given to the best refereed paper by an “early career contributor” published in the Journal of Consumer Psychology. An early career contributor is defined as a scholar whose work is published within two years of receiving his or her Ph.D. (or a scholar who had not yet received their PhD when the paper was published). The paper does not have to be the scholar’s dissertation, just one that the scholar has first-authored (or shared first authorship). All eligible papers were reviewed by a committee, who chose the winners for the award.
