AI Based Application Success Predictor

Because ABCT’s internal funding mechanisms are smaller and tightly focused on the CBT research community, success depends on:

✔ 1. Alignment With Behavioral & Cognitive Therapy Science

Applications must clearly articulate how the research contributes to CBT knowledge or practice, including empirically grounded hypotheses and methods relevant to the field.

Tip: Frame the project in terms of improving assessment, mechanisms, dissemination, or implementation of CBT-related interventions. abct.org

✔ 2. Feasible Plan With Clear Outcomes

Competitive student research grant proposals are expected to present:

A focused research question

A practical and well-scoped methodology

Clear deliverables that can be completed with modest funding

✔ 3. Scholarly Writing & Clarity

Small grant reviewers pay close attention to the clarity of writing, articulation of aims, and alignment between proposed expenses and research goals.

Tip: Use structured narratives with specific aims, planned analyses, and explicit CBT relevance.

✔ 4. Demonstrated Engagement With the ABCT Community

Active participation (e.g., membership, SIG involvement, conference abstracts/posters) signals commitment and professionalism.

Tip: Present preliminary data or abstracts at the ABCT annual meeting to strengthen grant applications.

✔ 5. Early Career or Student Status

For student research grants and SIG awards, candidates typically must be current graduate students or early career researchers. Clearly stating eligibility and contextualizing your career trajectory helps reviewers. abctautism.com

🛠 Practical Application Tips

✔ Prepare ahead of deadlines — ABCT sometimes announces student grants via newsletter or social media. Facebook
✔ Connect with SIGs — many SIGs offer their own awards and are a good avenue for focused applications. abctautism.com
✔ Attend ABCT’s annual convention — presentation can support award applications and increase visibility. abct.org
✔ Tailor the narrative — explicitly link your research to ABCT’s mission of empirically supported behavioral and cognitive interventions.
