Title of project: 
Mediators of the relationship between maternal religious belief and offspring mental health
Proposal summary: 

This project is intended to build upon several previous studies that examined the relationship between maternal religious belief and offspring mental health. This time we want to explore mechanisms that help to explain this relationship. For example religious belief may influence social support, or parenting style, which may then influence offspring mental health.

Impact of research: 
A better understanding of the antecedents of childhood and adolescent mental health problems.
