Amara Mason and Dr. Danielle Nadorff celebrate Amara's successful thesis defense

Drawing on Intergenerational Transmission of Violence Theory, Social Learning Theory, and Attachment Theory, the thesis examines whether alternative caregiver-led caregiving buffers or exacerbates the development of violent behavior patterns associated with early adversity in emerging adults aged 18 to 25. Congratulations, Amara!
