During the COVID-19 pandemic, CSUSB faculty members and sociologists Jurgita Abromaviciute and Ethel Mickey, along with UC Irvine sociologist Emily Carian, found that working mothers disproportionately shouldered new household and childcare duties, often sidelining their careers, while fathers perceived the division of labor as “fair” and in some cases expanded their career goals.

Brian Levin (criminal justice), Francisca Beer (finance) and Kelly Campbell (psychology) shared their expertise with news media, and Jurgita Abromaviciute (sociology) and Luba Levin-Banchik (political science) recently published some of their research.
