Grzywacz, Ph.D., is an interdisciplinary social scientist with broad research interests in understanding how social contexts of everyday life contribute to health among individuals, and how this knowledge can be used to promote population health. His research focuses primarily on the health-related implications of the work-family interface, socioeconomic status, and the organization of work. He has particular expertise in secondary analysis of large data sets, although his research program increasingly relies on primary data collection activities with repeated measures study designs. | | Recent Publications | Grzywacz, J.
