TY - JOUR PY - 2018// TI - Interdisciplinary approaches to examining postdisaster school recovery JO - Risk analysis A1 - Esnard, Ann-Margaret A1 - Lai, Betty SP - ePub EP - ePub VL - ePub IS - ePub N2 - This perspectives article uses a postdisaster school recovery research domain to examine two tenets of interdisciplinary research (IDR): integrative problem formulation and synthesis. Advancing interdisciplinary knowledge requires a "roadmap" of commonalities between disciplinary domains and outcomes of interest. Four school recovery domains-child trauma, educational learning outcomes, school safety, and household and community recovery-are presented to highlight common frameworks for IDR. A case study is also used to illustrate the value of interdisciplinary research and mixed-methods approaches, including statistics, geospatial analysis, and spatial statistics, for answering questions regarding how school contexts and location influence school recovery patterns.
