Research interests

My research is characterized by a predominant interest in family issues such as Family relationships, Family Social Capital, Intergenerational Family Solidarity, Family Business and more recently in the experience of families during the pandemic by Covid. I was the main researcher of three projects financed by Santander Universidades: “IFSINDEX Intergenerational Family Solidarity Index (2015-2016)”, “Older Parents, Generations, and Family Solidarity. A Multilevel Analysis of the Spanish Case”(2016-2019) and “Spanish family living through COVID-19” (2020-2021).
