Description

This webinar describes new CVFS research using the 2016-2018 lifetime mental health history data for intergenerational research. It will explain the mental health life history data and the use of CVFS relationship grids to link parents’ mental health histories to their children’s long-term behaviors, as well as other family background measures. The webinar will then present the long-term, independent effects of parental mental health on their children’s marriage and childbearing outcomes. There will be a Q&A session after the presentation.
