Curriculum Vita
Research Interests:
My research interests have developed into three major areas namely: Differentiation of Self, Poverty, and Filipino/Filipino-American Ethnic Identity. Specifically, I have done a quantitative study using structural equation modeling to verify whether the model for differentiation from family of origin is intergenerational in nature, i.e., whether parents' differentiation levels and symptomatology predict those of their children. I have just recently completed a qualitative study on poverty for people who were born poor and have become materially successful and another group of people who were born poor and who have stayed poor. I am currently working on a qualitative study to investigate the various relationship and identity processes of Filipino-American youth. |
