À propos de l?auteur

Robert Crosnoe is a professor in the Department of Sociology and (by courtesy) the Department of Psychology as well as a faculty research associate at the Population Research Center at the University of Texas, Austin. His research focuses on the ways in which the educational pathways of children and adolescents are connected to their general health, development and personal relationships and how these connections can be leveraged to explain demographic inequalities in educational and socioeconomic attainment. This research has been funded by the National Institute of Child Health and Human Development and by young scholar awards from the William T. Grant Foundation and the Foundation for Child Development. Dr Crosnoe has published more than 70 books and articles in journals such as Developmental Psychology, Child Development, the American Educational Research Journal and the American Sociological Review. He has also won awards for early career research contributions from the Society for Research in Child Development, the Society for the Study of Human Development and the Children and Youth Section of the American Sociological Association.
