Interaction — a word often used by statisticians — means a lack of independence among factors that characterize items or individuals. The author discusses interactions among those involved in statistical practice and statistical research and about interactions with the wider world outside of statistics. The author also discusses several kinds of interactions: those among ones selves as statisticians within American Statistical Association (ASA); those with other disciplines; and those of statistics and statisticians with public policy, an informed citizenry, and the like. Finally, the author will look to the future and describe some promising new initiatives that are likely to improve interactions as they expand the role and contributions of statistical thinking. People with a diversity of interests and backgrounds work together in ASA sections, committees, chapters and Board of Directors to achieve common goals. The intellectual argument against journal options is that ASA needs a common core research journal to give members a shared awareness of new research developments.
