This award recognizes a distinguished career and enduring contribution to advancing the application of psychology through methods, research, and/or application of psychological techniques to important practical problems. William E. Cross is recognized as a leading contributor to the discourse on African American identity development; his identity model has found application across a number of ethnic–racial identity communities. The same can be said of the way he investigates how members of stigmatized groups enact identity in everyday life. In his new text, Black Identity Viewed From a Barber’s Chair (in press with Temple University Press), he combines historical and psychological sources to show that during slavery, Blacks developed a positive ecology for infant and child development that helps to account for the extraordinary interpersonal competence many freed men and women exhibited after Emancipation.
