As part of the lab we have two research groups of masters writing a thesis. One group on single-parent paternity, a second group on the resilience of children whose mother was murdered by their father as a child.

Another study examines the perception of resilience of mental health professionals in relation to their patients, and the perception of resilience of social workers in relation to their patients, Ethiopians.
