Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Internal medicine
  • Disease
  • Health care

His primary areas of study are Demography, Gerontology, National Health Interview Survey, Socioeconomic status and Acculturation. His study in the fields of Mortality rate under the domain of Demography overlaps with other disciplines such as Geography. The concepts of his Gerontology study are interwoven with issues in Mortality differentials and Attendance.

His work is dedicated to discovering how National Health Interview Survey, National Death Index are connected with Epidemiology and Human geography and other disciplines. His Socioeconomic status research incorporates elements of Birth weight and Low birth weight. Robert A. Hummer has researched Acculturation in several fields, including National health and Pooled data.

His most cited work include:

  • Religious involvement and U.S. adult mortality (605 citations)
  • Immigration and the Health of Asian and Pacific Islander Adults in the United States (439 citations)
  • FRATERNITIES AND RAPE ON CAMPUS (290 citations)

What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?

Robert A. Hummer spends much of his time researching Demography, Gerontology, Socioeconomic status, National Health Interview Survey and Educational attainment. His work on Mortality rate as part of his general Demography study is frequently connected to Geography, thereby bridging the divide between different branches of science. Robert A. Hummer studied Gerontology and Cohort that intersect with Cohort study.

Robert A. Hummer interconnects Health equity, Health and Retirement Study and Affect in the investigation of issues within Socioeconomic status. His National Health Interview Survey research integrates issues from National Death Index, Cause of death and Environmental health. His work carried out in the field of Infant mortality brings together such families of science as Developed country, Birth weight and Low birth weight.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Demography (68.28%)
  • Gerontology (33.87%)
  • Socioeconomic status (25.27%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2017-2021)?

  • Demography (68.28%)
  • Socioeconomic status (25.27%)
  • Young adult (12.37%)

In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:

Demography, Socioeconomic status, Young adult, Educational attainment and Life course approach are his primary areas of study. Robert A. Hummer combines subjects such as Life expectancy and U s population with his study of Demography. His Socioeconomic status research includes themes of Health equity and Hysterectomy.

He has included themes like Cohort and Population health in his Young adult study. The study incorporates disciplines such as Affect, Health and Retirement Study, Unemployment and Infant mortality in addition to Educational attainment. His Life course approach research focuses on Gerontology and how it connects with Disadvantaged, Marital status and National Longitudinal Surveys.

Between 2017 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Educational and Gender Differences in Health Behavior Changes After a Gateway Diagnosis (22 citations)
  • Cigarette Smoking and All-Cause and Cause-Specific Adult Mortality in the United States. (17 citations)
  • The Depths of Despair Among US Adults Entering Midlife. (16 citations)

In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:

  • Internal medicine
  • Disease
  • Social science

Robert A. Hummer focuses on Demography, Young adult, Socioeconomic status, Health and Retirement Study and Racial ethnic. The various areas that Robert A. Hummer examines in his Demography study include Psychological intervention, Obesity, National Health Interview Survey, Life expectancy and Health equity. His National Health Interview Survey study frequently links to adjacent areas such as Cigarette smoking.

His Young adult research focuses on Life course approach and how it relates to Mental health, Cohort, Disadvantaged and Gerontology. His Socioeconomic status research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Hysterectomy, Reproductive age, Health care and Reproductive health. The Racial ethnic study combines topics in areas such as Hispanic paradox and Social determinants of health.
