Inequality and Group Disparities
PSC researchers have a long tradition of studying the sources of differences among populations in their family and fertility behavior, health and mental health, mortality, economic indicators, and population dynamics. Comparative research is conducted at Michigan on the causes and consequences of disparities across groups categorized by race/ethnicity, national origin, gender, neighborhood context, and biogenetic indicators.
