Margaret Frye uses qualitative and quantitative methods to investigate how shared cultural ideals and expectations shape outcomes in young adulthood, with a particular focus on family formation and schooling. Her research primarily focuses on sub-Saharan Africa, including projects in Malawi and Uganda, involving numerous studies that utilize data from dozens of African countries to understand how educational opportunities are unequally distributed and how this affects cultural norms and behaviors. Frye completed a longitudinal data collection project in Kampala, Uganda, examining the changing understandings of status resulting from Uganda's simultaneous expansion of university education and contraction of formal employment opportunities.
