Her Gerontology study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Mental health, Occupational safety and health and Cohort study. The Health care study combines topics in areas such as Cognitive skill, Cognition, Mortality rate, Activities of daily living and Cohort. As a part of the same scientific family, Therese Hesketh mostly works in the field of One-child policy, focusing on Total fertility rate and, on occasion, Family planning policy.

Her most cited work include:

  • The effect of China's one-child family policy after 25 years (376 citations)
  • Abnormal sex ratios in human populations: Causes and consequences (338 citations)
  • China’s excess males, sex selective abortion, and one child policy: analysis of data from 2005 national intercensus survey (234 citations)

Therese Hesketh spends much of her time researching Cross-sectional study, Rural area, Mainland China, Government and Family medicine. You can notice a mix of various disciplines of study, such as Human factors and ergonomics, Environmental health, Occupational safety and health, Injury prevention and Suicide prevention, in her Cross-sectional study studies. The Workplace violence research she does as part of her general Human factors and ergonomics study is frequently linked to other disciplines of science, such as Legislation and Intervention, therefore creating a link between diverse domains of science.

She interconnects Psychological well-being, Psychosocial, Hukou system, Strengths and Difficulties Questionnaire and Socioeconomics in the investigation of issues within Occupational safety and health. In her study, Therese Hesketh carries out multidisciplinary Rural area and Context research. The concepts of her Mainland China study are interwoven with issues in Job satisfaction, Socioeconomic status and Human resources.
