Cohort Variations
Publications
from my collaboration with Professor Robert O’Brien, listed below, began to
appear almost two decades ago. We are continuing this work, examining the
extent to which our earlier findings regarding lethal violence have persisted
with more recent cohorts as well as cohort variations in other aspects of
health and well-being.
