What is a TIG?
AEAs 35 Topical Interest Groups (TIGs) span the methodological, disciplinary, and ideological gamut. These subgroups of the Association allow members to connect with others who share their interests as well as provide a forum for sharing knowledge and skills during the annual conference. Some TIGs are very active and produce a newsletter, manage their own website, and solicit and develop special conference sessions. Other TIGs focus primarily on providing reviewers for topical presentations for the annual conference. AEA members may be members in up to five TIGs and may change their TIG choices at any time by contacting the AEA office or making the changes on your membership renewal form.
