Periodic reviews of research in the housing, equipment, and design specializations within family and consumer science have occurred in the past, documenting the status of research topics, methods, and theory. This article addresses research and scholarship in the housing, equipment, and design disciplines over the past 16 years by analyzing relevant publications with a family and consumer science perspective. Articles from three journals were analyzed to determine the number, university affiliation, topic, purpose, type, data collection, data analysis, and use of theory. Results indicate a decline in the total number of articles in these journals related to housing, equipment, and design. About one third of the articles utilized theory, and these articles used three theories frequently. Scholars in housing, equipment, and design should continue to publish in family and consumer science-related journals to continue the expansion and further the depth of these disciplines within the broader field.
