Family research is a field of study that explores the dynamics, relationships, and structures within families. This includes examining how families function, communicate, make decisions, and interact with each other and their larger social environment. Researchers in this field may focus on topics such as family development, parenting styles, sibling relationships, family conflict, divorce, and the impact of family dynamics on individual well-being and mental health. Family research often involves a multidisciplinary approach, drawing on insights from psychology, sociology, anthropology, and other disciplines to gain a comprehensive understanding of family life.
