我的研究
My research areas focus on two extremes in human development – young children and the elderly. I am interested in both groups because they are too often forgotten in the program development, 实现, 以及评估过程. I think it is critical to include them in facilitating programs and services designed to maximize their well-being and as such, 他们是我研究中的积极伙伴. 他们有很多东西可以教给我们.
