The Association maintains an active membership of more than 3,000 individuals, of whom some two thirds are teaching and conducting re- search in colleges, universities, and schools around the world. Other members are in government, law, medicine, and other professions. The wide professional and geographic distribution of the membership provides the basic strength of the ICA. The Association is a meeting ground for sharing research and useful dialogue about communication interests. Through its divisions and interest groups, publications, annual conferences, and relations with other associations around the world, the ICA promotes the sys- temic study of communication theories, processes, and skills. In addition to Com- munication Yearbook, the Association publishes the Journal of Communication, Human Communication Research, Communication Theory, Journal of Computer- Mediated Communication, A Guide to Publishing in Scholarly Communication Journals, and the ICA Newsletter.
