We are investigating many facets of teen pregnancy including: economic and educational outcomes, physical and emotional health outcomes, family background characteristics and parenting styles of young mothers. We are now on the fourth wave of the study and are interviewing the young women and their children who range in age from 11-13. Our data collection has involved the use of a life history calendar to record residential moves, education and work spells, household membership, fertility, and sources of income throughout the life of the study child. We have also used in-depth structured interview schedules and self-administered questionnaires for both the young women and the study child. Additionally, a smaller sample of women were selected for in-depth unstructured interviews.

Course description for a course on Introduction to Medical Sociology for medical students. I have recently started teaching such a course and feel that it needs revision. Any ideas and experiences you have would be helpful. 2. Experiences in problem-based learning for medical students in medical sociology. Our medical school will be changing its curriculum and I would like to learn more about other people's experiences, eventually be able to visit other institutions. 3. Course description for a course on introduction to medical sociology for sociology students. There is currently interest in our department for such a course and it would be nice to learn what other people are doing. Thank you.
