Dr. Flora & Dr. Morales collaborate for the Journal of Social & Personal Relationships

 

Congratulations to Dr. Flora, Dr. Morales, and Dr. Paik for their publication in the June 2023 issue of the Journal of Social & Personal Relationships, Shared Family Identity and communicatively managing the adaptation of family gatherings during the COVID-19 pandemic. 

Their article examines the choice of potentially adapting family gatherings due to the Covid-19 pandemic, and the impact of shared family identity on these decisions. Using Social Identity Theory and Communication Accommodation Theory, their findings offer important insights into how families can deal with disagreements about important topics by communicating respect, openness, and understanding.
