PAS 2026 Best Graduate Student Paper Award
We are pleased to announce that the winner of this year’s
Best Graduate Student Paper Award
is
Ms Chen Anqi
for their outstanding paper titled
“Social Participation, Couple Similarity, and Allostatic Load: A Dyadic Study of Chinese Couples”
The paper makes an important contribution by framing spousal health behaviour discordance as both a chronic stressor and moderator—an innovative integration that enriches the analysis. Methodologically, the research shows rigor through appropriate dyadic methods (APIM), transparent data handling, and the incorporation of allostatic load as a measure.
