Her current research focuses on two main areas: 1). investigating how societal ideas about parenting affect family dynamics, and 2). examining how different social factors influence parenting styles and their impact on children&#8217;s growth and well-being. For instance, Dr. McGregor is currently delving into the connections between intensive parenting beliefs, positive parenting practices, parental stress and depression, and the social-emotional development of young children. Her goal is to uncover how these intense parenting attitudes might shape children&#8217;s development through various family processes.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:33.33%\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"400\" height=\"400\" src=\"https:\/\/web.uri.edu\/peach-lab\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2206\/Casey-McGregor-web1.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-22\" srcset=\"https:\/\/web.uri.edu\/peach-lab\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2206\/Casey-McGregor-web1.jpg 400w, https:\/\/web.uri.edu\/peach-lab\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2206\/Casey-McGregor-web1-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/web.uri.edu\/peach-lab\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2206\/Casey-McGregor-web1-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/web.uri.edu\/peach-lab\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2206\/Casey-McGregor-web1-364x364.jpg 364w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 400px) 100vw, 400px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Lab Members<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-9d6595d7 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:66.66%\">\n<p><strong>Riley Tsechrintzis<\/strong> is a masters student in Human Development and Family Science at URI.
