\n<\/a>The Godin Prize is a scientific prize to be awarded to senior scholars (mid-life award) for their excellence in the scientific study of the psychology of religion. The Godin prize will be given every second IAPR conference, that is to say, once in every 4 years. The origin of the Godin Prize is a gift by Gregory Zilboorg to Andr\u00e9 Godin who was professor of psychology of religion at the Lumen Vitae Institute in Brussels, on March 15, 1956 in order to develop studies in the psychology of religion. The name of the prize on that moment was the Quinquennial Prize for the Scientific Psychology of Religion. After the death of Andr\u00e9 Godin in 1997, the committee decided to change the name of the prize to the Godin Prize. As a mid-life award the Godin Prize is aimed at senior scholars. Eligible candidates for the Godin Prize are midlife researchers, who conduct excellent research (as reflected in publications) in the field of the Psychology of Religion.<\/p>\n
