The Use of Scientific Theory to Guide Indian Mate Selection Research
The topic of mate selection in contemporary India provides an opportunity to illustrate the value of using scientific theory to guide family research. This modified transcript from a keynote address first describes the benefit to theory guided family science research and then provides a few select examples of the way theory informs a better understanding of patterns and trends in contemporary Indian mate selection. The availability of robust data…

Family Development Theory 30 Years Later
Mattessich and Hill (1987) charted an historical overview of the family life cycle and development perspective in The Handbook of Marriage and the Family . That same year Evelyn Duvall presented a distinguished lecture at the National Council on Family Relations meeting titled, “Family Development's First Forty Years.” These academic works capture the historical foundation of family development theory by two pioneers of the theory and provide a r…

Advancing Dynamic Family Theories
Dynamic theories are centered on explaining the influences of social context and institutional structures on the life course of individuals and families. Life course development theory addresses both normative social patterns and nonnormative deviations. Life course researchers view trajectories as theoretically superior to single time‐point measures because the former look at life‐transition events in the surrounding social context, not in isola…

Predicting Immigrant Employment Sequences in the First Years of Settlement
Drawing on data from the Longitudinal Survey of Immigrants to Canada, we analyze factors shaping new immigrants’ month-by-month employment trajectories over their first 4 years of settlement. We treat trajectories as multidimensional and holistic entities, seeking to predict the correlates of a set of typical pathways identified via optimal matching techniques and cluster analysis. Human capital attributes and household context shapes trajectorie…
Religion and Family Links
Religious Socialization
Recent research on intergenerational faith transfer has argued that (a) parents have a direct effect on the adolescence acquisition of religiosity and (b) parental effects are mediated through congregation and peers. This study tests the channeling hypothesis, which argues that parental influences are mediated through both peer selection and congregation selection. It examines both direct and indirect effects that parental influence has on the re…
