Health, Illness & Wellbeing
Theme overview
How are health and illness experienced within families and relationships? How do families and relationships influence health? These questions reflect the interests of CRFR researchers working in the area of health, caring and well being. Our research spans the life-course, from conception to old age, and uses qualitative (e.g. in-depth interviews) and quantitative (e.g. large longitudinal surveys) research methods to explore social dimensions of health and illness within families. Specific areas of interest and expertise include: mental health and well being; parenting, childhood and health; reproductive health, older people’s health and well being. |
