Hauser, Robert M.
Robert M. Hauser has advanced social science methodologies while pushing the boundary of modern research on social stratification. He has helped consolidate the foundation of the structural equation model in his pedagogical papers of the methodology and empirical papers on the status attainment model.

Indicators of Children's Well-Being
The search for reliable information on the well-being of America's young is vital to designing programs to improve their lives. Yet social scientists are concerned that many measurements of children's physical and emotional health are inadequate, misleading, or outdated, leaving policymakers ill-informed.
