University of Central Arkansas psychology student, Emily Hahn, was selected as one of four recipients for a scholarship from Psi Chi International Honor Society. The Psi Chi Undergraduate Scholarship, worth $3,000, was awarded to four students out of 95 applicants. Hahn was the only Arkansas recipient.
Other students receiving the scholarship hail from New York University, the University of Colorado Denver and Florida State University.
Hahn has been an active member of UCA’s chapter and recently became vice president. The chapter has had much success with winning national chapter awards, graduate fellowships and students receiving grants for undergraduate research and travel.
Outside of Psi Chi, Hahn has been working on an independent research project with Dr. Ken Sobel, associate professor of psychology, looking at false memories in children.
