SIUE Researcher Gains National Attention for Study on Child Health and Paternal Investment
SIUE researcher Marlon Tracey, PhD, assistant professor in the School of Business’ Department of Economics and Finance, is making headlines for a study published in the January 2018 edition of the Journal of Health Economics.
The article entitled “If looks could heal: Child health and paternal investment” details research results that hold implications regarding “the role of a father’s time in enhancing child health, especially in fragile families.”
A post on Bustle featured the work of Tracey and his co-author Solomon W. Polachek, a distinguished research professor in the Department of Economics at State University of New York at Binghamton.
