Significance, established in 2004, is a bimonthly print and digital magazine published by Oxford University Press on behalf of the Royal Statistical Society (RSS), the Statistical Society of Australia (SSA) and the American Statistical Association (ASA).[1] It publishes articles on topics of statistical interest presented at a level suited for a general audience. Articles are reviewed by an editorial board of statistics experts drawn from the three societies.[2] The founding editor-in-chief was Helen Joyce.[3] The current editor is Anna Britten. Significance replaced the RSS's journal, The Statistician.[4] The magazine also has a website.
In addition to ordinary articles in the magazine, additional "virtual issues" (collections of articles on a particular subject area) are made available online.
Members of either the RSS or the ASA receive the magazine as part of their membership.[1] In January 2015, the RSS and ASA decided to make the magazine issues available to the public free of charge a year after their publication.[8]
