Membership Categories
Iowa ABA membership is open to all persons interested in or actively engaged in teaching, research, and/or application of the principles and procedures of behavior analysis. Membership is not restricted to residents of the State of Iowa. There are four classes of membership:
- Full Member: Any individual holding a terminal degree in a discipline directly related to or involving behavior analysis and whose full-time professional commitment includes teaching, research and/or practice in behavior analysis may apply for membership in this category.
- Affiliate Member: Any member evidencing interest in the discipline of behavior analysis, but lacking formal training therein, may apply for this class of membership. Affiliate members will enjoy all benefits except for the right to vote on matters of interest to the organization and the right to hold office.
- Student Member: Any individual pursuing formal training in the discipline of behavior analysis but not yet gainfully employed therein on at least a half-time basis may apply for membership in this category. Such application must be accompanied by an endorsement of a Full member certifying the applicant’s student status. Student members may neither vote nor hold office.
- Family Membership: A family membership can be obtained for any family within which there is a vested interest in learning about or using the principles of behavior analysis.
