The American Psychological Association (APA) is a scientific and professional organization that represents psychologists in the United States, with over 121,000 members, including scientists, educators, clinicians, consultants, and students.
The APA has 54 divisions—interest groups for different subspecialties of psychology or topical areas.

These divisions include:
Society for Industrial and Organizational Psychology (Division 14)
Adult Development and Aging (Division 20)
