The society publishes its own journal, Statistical Modelling.
[2] The Statistical Modelling Society was founded in June 2003.
It was preceded by its journal (which was launched in 2001) and the workshops, which were first held in 1986.
The origins of the society lie in Austria, the UK and Italy, where the first workshops were held.
These early meetings had their main focus on developments in generalized linear models and particularly the software GLIM.
