Min-Ah Lee

I am a Professor in the Department of Sociology at Chung-Ang University. I earned my Ph.D in Sociology and MS in Statistics from Purdue University, West Lafayette, IN. US, and also worked as a postdoctoral research associate in the Department of Development Sociology at Cornell University. My research interests include the sociology of mental health and emotion, health inequality, aging & the life course, relationships & wellbeing, and gender inequality. My research has been published in Journals of Gerontology: Social Sciences, Social Science & Medicine, Aging & Mental Health, Sociology of Health & Illness, and others. My recent research topics include social determinants of the gender gap in cognitive function, health, and well-being, as well as how gender relations affect young Korean adults' attitudes toward marriage, childbearing, and fertility. I mainly use quantitative research methods, but have also conducted qualitative research.
