Notes

1. APSA vocabulary here is confusing. The Annual Meeting has been split into what are called program sections, not to be confused with organized sections. Each program section of the meeting comprises 5–15 panels. In this article program sections will be called “parts” of the meeting.

2. Traditionally these groups have been named unaffiliated groups. The terminology has recently been changed to related groups.

3. These data exclude 57 roundtables held at the meeting, because attendance at these is unusually high, and most are arranged by the program committee. Multi-variate analysis controlling for type of panel, time and day of the panel, and sponsorship shows a similar differential.
