Buehler Named Family Relations Fellow

By Dan Nonte, University Relations

Dr. Cheryl A. Buehler, a professor in the Department of Human Development and Family Studies, has been named a National Council on Family Relations Fellow.

NCFR Fellows are nominated by their peers and chosen for their contributions to family studies. Scholarship, teaching and the development of programs to promote healthy families are among the factors in the selection process.

Buehler has been a professor at UNCG since 2003. She came to UNCG from the University of Tennessee, Knoxville, where she was a professor of child and family studies in the College of Human Ecology and senior scientist in the Children's Mental Health Services Research Center.

In a distinguished career that spans three decades, she has been a prolific researcher and writer, particularly in the area of family conflict and parent-child relations. She has conducted and published more than 40 studies in refereed journals, written book chapters, and addressed national and international conferences.

She has mentored many students, directed thesis and dissertation research for emerging scholars, and encouraged new professionals in the field of family science. She is a longstanding, active member of NCFR, having served on the Board of Directors as vice president for membership (1998-2000), and as vice chair of research and theory and board member (1994-96).

She is also an associate editor and panel reviewer for Journal of Marriage and Family, Journal of Child and Family Studies, Family Relations, and Family Science Review. She is frequently invited to be an ad-hoc reviewer for other peer-reviewed journals.

"She is a consummate team player," said one of her nominators. "We owe her a debt of gratitude for all that she has done for our organization and discipline."
