The researcher's work focuses on the application of social capital theory to improve caregiving practices among families supporting children with neurodevelopmental disorders. Their study employs a multidisciplinary approach, combining insights from psychology, sociology, and family studies, particularly examining the interplay between social networks, resources, and individual well-being. A case study in Kumasi, Ghana, demonstrates how this theoretical framework can inform more effective support systems for caregivers dealing with these children, emphasizing the importance of understanding the emotional and social support dynamics within families.
