A review of housing articles in FCSRJ: 2008-2022

The Family and Consumer Sciences Research Journal (FCSRJ) is a multidisciplinary journal which includes housing and interior design as one of the eight topic areas. To increase the visibility of housing and interior design, this review focused on housing research by presenting a summary of the 27 housing and interior design articles published in FCSRJ between 2008 and 2022. The following categories emerged: history, culture, housing counseling, issues and trends, affordability, renting versus owning, college students, and older adults. The results of each published study were timely and productive, and many of the authors called for additional research to explore the topics in more depth.
