Congratulations to Dr. Salvatore R. Maddi. Psychology in Everyday Life has the good fortune of having Dr. Maddi as an author contributor.
Dr. Maddi’s fifty-two year prolific career as a teacher, author, theorist, researcher, and consultant, practitioner, and expert witness earned him a Gold Medal from the American Psychological Foundation in the area of Lifetime Achievements in Psychology in the area of Public Interest.
Dr. Maddi’s pioneer study at the Illinois Bell Telephone Company opened up a field of health psychology research and practice that came from his seminal work on the hardiness personality. He will receive his Lifetime Achievement Award in August of 2012 at the American Psychological Association Convention in Orlando, Florida.
