Robert Crosnoe is a professor in the Department of Sociology and (by courtesy) the Department of Psychology as well as a faculty research associate at the Population Research Center at the University of Texas, Austin.

This research has been funded by the National Institute of Child Health and Human Development and by young scholar awards from the William T. Grant Foundation and the Foundation for Child Development. Dr Crosnoe has published more than 70 books and articles in journals such as Developmental Psychology, Child Development, the American Educational Research Journal and the American Sociological Review.
