Faculty and graduate students in our department study important issues to improve people's lives, such as:
- Families coping with health problems
- Closing the large gap between poor and rich children when they enter school
- Programs to encourage literacy in preschool children
- Young adults' increasing dependency on their parents
- The effects of work- including "extreme" work serving in the military- on families
- Cross cultural differences in family patterns
- Family influences on adolescents' and young adults' health risk behaviors
- How "mellowing out" can prolong life
