“Understanding Human Development and Families” offers a clear explanation of key concepts related to human development. We emphasize the importance of researching families and children, covering the ethics of such research, causal inference, and effective methods for data measurement.
Our book provides a comprehensive view of the politics of family and child research, program evaluation in human development and family science, and advanced topics in family data analysis. We analyze data on children, adolescents, and older adults within family contexts, interpreting quantitative data through surveys and experiments.
This book is an invaluable resource for students in behavioral and social sciences, including social welfare, sociology, nursing, human services, education, psychology, and human development. It offers a multidisciplinary perspective, suitable for both undergraduates and postgraduates, ensuring a broad understanding of human development and family dynamics.
