PROGRAM GUIDELINES
A revised version of the NSF Proposal & Award Policies &
Procedures Guide (PAPPG), NSF 09-1, was issued on October 1, 2008
and is effective for proposals submitted on or after January 5, 2009. Please be
advised that the guidelines contained in NSF 09-1 apply to proposals submitted
in response to this funding opportunity. Proposers who opt to submit
prior to January 5th, 2009, must also follow the guidelines
contained in NSF 09-1.
One of the most significant changes to the PAPPG is
implementation of the mentoring provisions of the America COMPETES Act.
Each proposal that requests funding to support postdoctoral researchers must
include, as a separate section within the 15-page project description, a
description of the mentoring activities that will be provided for such
individuals. Proposals that do not include a separate section on
mentoring activities within the Project Description will be returned without
review (see the PAPP Guide Part I: Grant Proposal Guide Chapter
II.C.2.d for further information).
Apply to PD 03-7252 as follows:
For full proposals submitted via FastLane:
standard Grant Proposal Guidelines apply.
For full proposals submitted via Grants.gov:
NSF Grants.gov Application Guide; A Guide for the Preparation and Submission of NSF Applications via Grants.gov Guidelines apply

SYNOPSIS
Supports research on perception, action and cognition including the development of these capacities. Emphasis is on research strongly grounded in theory. Research topics include vision, audition, haptics, attention, memory, reasoning, written and spoken discourse, motor control, and developmental issues in all topic areas. The program encompasses a wide range of theoretical perspectives, such as symbolic computation, connectionism, ecological, nonlinear dynamics, and complex systems, and a variety of methodologies including both experimental studies and modeling. Research involving acquired or developmental deficits is appropriate if the results speak to basic issues of perception, action, and cognition.
