Zayed Higher Organisation for People of Determination (ZHO) has launched the "Psychology Dictionary for Scientific Research" Award as part of the Emirati Russian Psychology Dictionary project.
This initiative was previously launched by the organisation in alignment with the strategic partnership between the organisation and Ural Federal University in the Russian Federation. The project aims to promote scientific research and academic studies in psychology.
The award aims to encourage researchers and scientists to continue their pursuit of excellence in this vital field by presenting their pioneering and distinguished research. It also aims to highlight individuals and institutions committed to advancing psychological knowledge, research, support, and the promotion of an inclusive and enlightened community through pioneering research, impactful community initiatives, or transformative educational programmes.
Abdullah Al Humaidan, ZHO Secretary-General, emphasised that the award represents a remarkable opportunity for scientists and researchers to present their work and contribute to the advancement of knowledge in the field of psychology.
He noted that the award is expected to have a substantial positive impact on the academic and scientific community by enhancing a deeper understanding of psychology and developing specialised terminology in both the UAE and Russia.
He explained that the award seeks to honour pioneering research that addresses the complex challenges of translating and adapting psychological concepts between Arabic and Russian. Furthermore, the award acknowledges the vital role of technology in modern research by dedicating a special category for the best use of the "Dictionary GPT" tool—an advanced AI tool trained on dictionary data.
The submissions for the award open today until 15th January 2025, with the winners announced and awards presented in a special ceremony on 15th February the following year.
