Abstract:
|
Earlier this year, the non-USA members of the ASA completed a survey regarding their participation and interests in the ASA. This paper will examine different regions of the world. It will focus on satisfaction based on whether ASA is their primary membership, factors that influenced them to join the ASA, and ratings of different aspects of the ASA (e.g., representation of international members on ASA boards and committees, ASA journals and publications reflects international issues of interest). It will also take a special look at members from developing nations. The internet survey was a census of the non-USA ASA membership (N=2031; 84 did not have email addresses) and had a XX % response rate (n=XXXX). {The study is currently in the field so I will update this abstract later.}
