It was an offshoot of the American National Committee of the International Union for the Scientific Study of Population (IUSSP) which had been formed in 1927 with Raymond Pearl of Johns Hopkins University as its first President.[4] The History Committee identifies the following events in the timeline prior to the founding of PAA that were relevant to founding PAA:[5]
JournalThe flagship journal of the PAA, called Demography, is a bi-monthly journal published by Springer and was founded in 1964.[8][9][10] It is one of the world's leading journals on issues related to population and demographic trends.[11] AwardThe Irene B. Taeuber Award for research achievements of the Population Association of America is named after Irene Barnes Taeuber.[12] ConferencesThe PAA holds an annual meeting every March/April where people present research and data on population trends. The PAA held its first annual meeting on April 22–23, 1932, in New York City.[5] Since then, annual meetings have been held every year except the year 1938 and the years 1943, 1944, and 1945 (the latter three due to the United States' involvement in World War II).[5] Initially, PAA Annual Meetings were held in New York City and nearby East Coast cities, due to the concentration of population researchers and policymakers in that area. The first meeting outside the eastern U.S. time zone was held in Chicago in 1958.[5] Since then, conferences have been held in numerous locations across the United States ranging from Dallas and Miami to Minneapolis, and also in some cities in Canada such as Montreal and Toronto.[5] The Annual Meetings for 2011, 2012, and 2013 were held in Washington D.C., San Francisco, and New Orleans respectively. The annual meeting website is maintained in collaboration with Princeton University.[5][13][14][15] The Pew Research Center is among the many demography-related research groups that sends many papers and posters to this conference.[16] Some of the PAA's Annual Meetings and additional meetings have been held in collaboration with other professional associations such as the American Statistical Association (1933, 1950), American Philosophical Society (1938), National Economic and Social Planning Association (1939), and American Sociology Association (1967).[5] The PAA has also sponsored other population-related conferences, such as the 1935 Conference on Population Estimates that Eleanor Roosevelt attended[5] and the 2013 conference Integrating Genetics and the Social Sciences held at the University of Colorado.[17] MembershipPAA allows people to become paid members for a fee ranging from $39–$117 depending on their status and location, with a special discount for members who want online-only access to their journal. Members get the latest PAA publications including the bi-monthly journal Demography and some newsletters, and they can also attend the PAA Annual Meeting. As of 2013, there are about 3,000 members.[18] Other activitiesThe PAA is a partner in the Science and Technology Fellowship Program of the American Association for the Advancement of Science.[19][20] See also
