The centers and organizations conduct research in agriculture, astronomy and space, behavioral and social sciences, biology and ecology, business and economics, computers and mathematics, education, engineering and technology, government and public affairs, humanities and religion, labor and industrial relations, law, medical sciences, physical and earth sciences, and regional and area studies. Law-related organizations focus on capital punishment, law enforcement, copyrights and trademarks, forensic science, jurisprudence, justice administration, legal ethics, patents, prisons, product liability, and sentencing alternatives. Behavioral and social science research deals with adolescent studies, alcohol and drug abuse, child studies, cognition and perception, ethnic studies, human development, marriage and the family, minority groups, population and demography, psychology, social conflict and violence, and women's studies. Directory entries include organization name, address, and phone and fax numbers; organizational notes; research activities and fields; publications and services; and additional contact information.
