Family Health Study: Long-Term and Multigenerational Impact of Maltreatment<\/h3>\r\nThe Family Health Study is a study examining the long-term impact of child maltreatment on physical and mental health in adulthood and across generations.\u00a0 The study is following a cohort of people who originally participated in a research summer camp study and are now in middle adulthood.\u00a0 The Family Health Study represents the 3rd<\/sup> wave of data collection with these participants (wave 1-childhood, wave 2-young adulthood, wave 3 (current)-mid adulthood).\u00a0 This study is particularly interested in the biological embedding of stress and how exposure to child maltreatment may impact different biological systems to influence health throughout life and throughout generations.\u00a0 A particularly novel part of this study is the inclusion of the original participants\u2019 (who are now adults) children to determine how a history of exposure to maltreatment in childhood may affect the health and wellbeing of the next generation.\r\n

Research Project 2<\/h2>","description":"

Project TRAIL (Thriving, Responding, and Adapting in Interpersonal Life)<\/h3>\r\nCAN is an enduring predictor of adult social difficulties in intimate partner relationships and caregiving of offspring. However, little is known about how, why, and when CAN increases vulnerability to adulthood relationship problems. The aim of Project TRAIL is to examine the adult intimate partner and parent-child relationship sequelae of adverse and benevolent socialization experiences in childhood.\r\n
    \r\n \t
  • \u00a0The longitudinal project seeks to follow a sample of approximately 200 28 to 32 year-old adults who participated in two prior measurement occasions when they were 10 to 12 years-old and 18 to 22 years-old.<\/li>\r\n \t
  • The multi-method, multi-informant methodological approach is designed to examine the close relationship qualities of adults with their partners and own children who experienced different types of adverse and supportive experiences. A key aim of this long-term longitudinal study is to identify the mediating mechanisms and moderating conditions (e.g., protective factors) that underpin their close relationship experiences in adulthood.<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n
