Carolyn Gentle-Genitty studies why young people miss school and how absenteeism (also called truancy) connects to family, neighborhood, and social factors. Her work develops theories, measurement tools, and policy ideas around school attendance, and also examines adolescent behavior and delinquency across different countries. She combines social work perspectives with quantitative and qualitative research methods.
Publication activity has been variable over the past decade, peaking around 2020-2021 and settling to a steadier pace of about four papers per year more recently.
