At the APA Council of Representatives meeting in February, members agreed to lower dues. Dr. Darlyne Nemeth provided a report to the Times, which noted, “The reduction in full members’ dues, from the current $287 to $247 beginning in 2012, is part of an overall redesign of the association’s dues schedule as proposed by the Membership Board.”
The report noted, “The revised schedule moves the association from a dues schedule based on discounts for specific constituency groups to reduced costs for all full members. Early career members will still enjoy reduced dues for their first eight years of membership. This action rescinds a 2011 Council decision to grant a $25 dues discount to APA members who are also members of the Federation for the Advancement of Behavioral and Brain Sciences, the Association for Psychological Science, the Society for Neuroscience, the state, provincial and territorial psychological associations and the four national ethnic minority psychological associations.”
